Breakfast Popovers

makes 6 regular popovers

3 tablespoons melted butter, divided
2 eggs
1 cup milk, warmed for 30 seconds in the microwave (should be lukewarm to warm)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt


Preheat the oven to 400° F.

Using a pastry brush, coat 8 muffin cups with 1 tablespoon of the melted butter and put the tin in the oven for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the eggs in a blender until light yellow. Add the warmed milk and blend. Add the flour, salt and remaining melted butter, and blend until smooth. Pour the batter into the warmed muffin tin and return it to the oven to bake until golden, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve warm with butter, jam, and fresh fruit or maple syrup.

Katy’s and my mom, Mary Lonergan, used to make similar popovers at the holidays and other special occasions. Now I get to make them with my kids – Tate and Lulu love them –  and the tradition continues!
