Ingredients

  • Popovers:
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 Tbsp. melted butter Or vegetable oil, plus more for greasing
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 2 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp. packed brown sugar
  • Topping:
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. butter, melted

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl with a pouring spout, beat eggs, using a whisk, until foamy. Add milk, flour, melted butter or oil, salt, 2 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon and brown sugar and beat just until smooth. A few small lumps are okay. Do not over mix. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour to overnight.
  2. Line a popover pan or muffin tin bottoms with rounds of parchment paper cut to fit and generously grease sides. Fill each cup of muffin tin two-thirds full with batter.
  3. Place pans in center of cold oven and set temperature to 375 degrees. Bake for 30 minutes (do not open oven door during baking). After 30 minutes of baking, open oven and gently pierce the side of each popover with a skewer to let steam escape.
  4. Bake 10 to 15 minutes longer or until firm and golden brown.

  5. Stir together the remaining cinnamon and granulated sugar. Brush each popover with melted butter, and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Serve immediately.
  6. makes 1 dozen
