The popovers burned on the top and were uncooked in the middle!

These are really yummy with preserves and whipped cream or even a bit of cream cheese. I didn't have the right pan so I made them in a mini muffin pan and those were the perfect size for an hors d'ouevre or a tea party.

Excellent and SO SO SO easy to make! Grew up in the north and now live in the south and NEVER see popovers anywhere! I am so thrilled to have found this recipe. My husband and kids absolutely love these. (I do too!)

My mom used to make popovers for us. I did an experiment with this recipe, based on a popover recipe a friend from England gave me. I put a dallop of mashed potatoes in 3 of them before baking. Actually those "opened up" and looked more like the popovers I grew up with...the others stayed closed and looked like muffins. The taste was good but I am not sure what I did wrong to get the muffin-like appearance. Good base recipe, any good cook has a popover recipe in their file box, IMO! Thanks for the post!

PLEASE - Be sure to sift the flour before adding it to the mix. If you do not sift flour, you end up with more than the recipe calls for. I tried many times to just measure the flour straight into the mix. They just get too heavy and don't "pop". Sift, sift, sift!

Awesome awesome awesome!!! Just like my grandmother's! I'm so pleased. I'd tried other recipes before and my popovers never "popped" correctly. I had no custard cups so I ended up working with a muffin tin and 12 perfect little popovers!! Excellent!

Perfect! I love this recipe. Easy and delicious! Made them to go with a traditional roast dinner and they were a huge hit! Much easier and better than the William Sonoma recipe I have been using that was included with my popover pan. I wonder if one could use beef drippings instead of butter in the popover pan for more of a "Yorkshire pudding" popover..or should the beef drippings replace the butter in the batter? or leave the recipe as is....Any thoughts???

Haven't made popovers in years and gave it try for some Bostonian company. We all enjoyed them. Will try the recipe again and add vanilla and cinnamon for a breakfast treat.

I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfect. I have had a hard time finding a good popover recipe (especially one that didn't stick to the popover pan) and this one was perfect. I will definitely make these again.

This is the best popover recipe I have ever found and I will definitely be keeping this on hand! I serve them with honey butter and they are a huge hit.

Excellent! Exactly what I was looking for, and taste just like the popovers I grew up with! I didn't have a popover tin, so I used a muffin tin, and found that the amount of batter actually made 12 popovers instead of 6. so i cut the butter down - 1/4 tsp per muffin tin (12) and reduced the baking time slightly - 15 minutes in 425 degree heat and 10 minutes at 325. They turned out wonderful, very light and very very fluffy. Excellent with some melted honey. This recipe is DEFINITELY a keeper!

I could not stand these. You can actually taste the eggs in them when they are cooked, and I can't stand eggs. They were not for me.

Excellent! I've made a similar recipe for years, but I have to say that these puffed up much better. And, the butter in the bottom of the tin was a neat idea. Great flavor and super simple!

I have tried so many different popover recipies, only to end up with heavy muffins. These popped over beautifully, I added some vanilla and they were a hit.

Excellent!! Finally popovers that stay puffed. The butter in the bottom of the pan is the trick to getting them out easily. This will replace my old recipe from now on!!

This recipe was SO easy and SO delicious. People were eating them before the dinner was even served! I added some fresh thyme and a clove of minced garlic, and they were a hit!! I will be making them for many years to come. One tip, follow the directions EXACTLY with preheating the muffin pans and cooking time. DO NOT open the oven until they are done baking and you will have an impressive bread to serve with any meal!!

I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR A NO FAIL RECIPE FOR TRADITIONAL POPOVERS AND THIS ONE FILLS THE BILL. EASY PREPARATION, AND A SNAP TO PUT TOGETHER. MY SEARCH IS OVER. FOR ADDED FLAVOR, TRY ADDING SOME DRIED ONION (OR FRESH, GRATED), OR GARLIC TO THE BATTER. YUMMY!!
