TWD: Popovers



This past weekend, I finally learned what I had been missing out on.  I had never made, or even tasted, a popover until Sunday morning.  As it turns out, they are not only delicious but so very easy to make.  As for the custardy middle, well, I personally thought it was the perfect foil to the crisp shell.  We ate our popovers for breakfast with butter and blackberry preserves.

    It was great to watch them puff - each in its way. ...yours looks almost chocolately.
    I've made some sweet and some cheesy (Grana cheese) adding rosemary and spices...
    This recipe is a winner. We loved them.

    Butter and blackberry preserves sound awfully delicious with the popovers - nicely done! This was my first go at a popover recipe as well.

    Have a wonderful week!

    I grew up eating popovers (yorkshire pudding) with roast and gravy. This was my first time making them and I will make them again! Glad you enjoyed them.

    I had never tried popovers before either - but I would not hesitate to make them again, as they were delicious.
