Based on a recipe from one of my very first cookbooks: The Encyclopedia of Creative Cooking. These are very nice popovers, and go well with prime rib of beef, in which case I substitute the beef fat renderings for the shortening.
Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup milk (scant measure)
1 tablespoon shortening, melted
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
2. Sift flour and salt together.
3. In medium bowl, mix eggs, milk, and shortening. Gradually add in flour. Beat until smooth with egg whisk or electric mixer, about 1 minute.
4. Pour into greased popover tins, Pyrex cups, or muffin pans to 1/3 full.
5. Bake 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F; bake an additional 15 minutes, until popovers are firm.
