Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.25 cups Whole milk
• 2 Large eggs
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.5 cup Grated Gruyère cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a standard popover pan (or muffin tin) inside to heat while you prepare the batter.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. The mixture should be light and frothy for the best results.

Step 3

Sift the flour and salt into the egg mixture a little at a time, whisking until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain the light texture of the batter.

Step 4

Stir in the melted butter, ensuring it is well incorporated. If using grated Gruyère cheese, fold it gently into the batter.

Step 5

Remove the preheated pan from the oven and lightly grease each cup with butter or nonstick spray.

Step 6

Fill each cup of the pan about three-quarters full with the batter. This will allow the popovers to puff up magnificently.

Step 7

Bake for 20 minutes at 425°F (220°C), then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Do not open the oven during baking, as this can cause the popovers to collapse.

Step 8

Once done, remove the popovers from the oven and immediately pierce each one with a skewer or knife to release steam. This step helps maintain their structure.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy them plain or with butter, or add your favorite spreads for extra flavor.
