This recipe is hands down the best one I've ever used, and I have experimented with alot of popover recipes through the years. Made a ''test batch'' yesterday as I did'nt want to bomb a recipe in front of my son's in-laws. My old recipes were all unreliable-sometimes perfect, sometimes heavy and gooey, heat the pan in the oven first, don't heat the pan...Read through this recipe through completely noting the photos, first. Follow the easy directions and you will have absolutely perfect popovers. No expensive, snooty popover pan needed. I used a Cuisinart 12-cup muffin pan. I would bake them slightly less in the 350F phase, not more than 8-10 minutes.
Audrey, glad you didn't "bomb" in front of the in-laws! Popovers can be fickle, but this recipe seems reliable - thanks for reporting your results here... PJH
