📝 Preparation Steps
1
Using a blender, blend eggs, milk, and salt. Add flour, shredded cheese, and minced thyme blending until smooth; then add the melted butter at the end, blending until frothy.
large eggs (, room temperature before cracking)4melted butter (, cooled slightly)3 tablespoons
2
Let batter rest in the blender for ⏱️ 15 minutes while you preheat the oven.
3
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and place rack in the bottom third position (to make room for tall popovers and to ensure the tops don’t burn!) and another rack in the top position.
4
Place a 6-slot special popover pan on a baking sheet; put on the lower rack of oven for ⏱️ 2 minutes while oven is preheating.
5
Spray the hot pan all over (including inside the wells and the outside rim) with nonstick cooking spray.
6
Pour the rested batter evenly into the muffin slots, almost to the top.
7
Bake the popovers for ⏱️ 20 minutes without opening the oven door. Reduce the heat to 350°F (again without opening the door), and bake for an additional ⏱️ 10 minutes, until they're tall, have "popped" over the tops of the pan, and are a deep, golden brown.(Without opening the oven door, check them with the oven light during the last ⏱️ 5 minutes to make sure they’re not over-browning. If necessary, quickly open the door and put a cookie sheet on that upper rack to shield the popovers' tops from direct heat.)
8
Remove them from the oven, and pierce the top or bottom of each with the tip of a pairing knife, to release steam and help prevent sogginess.
9
Slip them out of the pan, split open and serve with butter!NOTE: Make sure to use a specific popover pan and not a regular muffin tin, and refer to the article for helpful tips.
