3. Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Popovers

1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a popover or muffin tin inside the oven to heat up.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until well combined.
3. Gradually add the flour and salt, whisking continuously to make a smooth batter. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
4. Carefully remove the preheated tin from the oven and evenly distribute the batter into the cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the popovers are golden brown and puffed up.
6. Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent collapsing. Once done, serve immediately for best texture.
