My father worked for J. Edgar Hoover, so when I found this recipe I had to post it! Adapted from CD Kitchens. Ingredients:
3 eggs |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon sugar |
1 cup flour (you can use 1/2 whole wheat and half white if you like) |
1 cup milk |
2 tablespoons melted vegetable shortening |
Directions:
1. Before starting to make popovers put the greased popover pans into a 450 degrees F. oven and heat until they are sizzling hot.
2. Beat eggs on medium speed a few minutes until frothy with an electric mixer.
3. Add salt, sugar, flour and half the milk and mix again, medium speed, until smooth.
4. Now add remaining milk and melted shortening, and beat at low speed until blended.
5. Pour batter into hot popover pans, filling each about half full.
6. Bake at 450°F for 15 minutes.
7. Reduce heat to 400°F and continue baking for 15 minutes longer.
