Ingredients

Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups (lightly packed) shredded Gruyere cheese, separated
  • 2 Tablespoons minced fresh chives
  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  2. Warm milk: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the milk just until bubbles form around the edges.
  3. Sift dry ingredients: Sift the flour and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.
  4. Combine wet and dry: In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy, and then slowly whisk the warm milk into the eggs, whisking constantly so eggs don’t cook. Whisk in the flour mixture just until combined, then whisk in 1 cup of the cheese and the chives.
  5. Prepare pan and batter: Place the popover pan in the oven for 2 minutes to heat. Remove it and add a pat of butter to each cup. Once the butter has melted, portion the batter into the cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Top with a portion of the remaining cheese.
  6. Bake: Bake the popovers for 20 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 300ºF, and continue baking about 10 more minutes. (See Kelly’s Notes.)
  7. Serve: Remove the popovers from the oven and serve warm.
  8. Kelly’s Notes:
  9. Flour measuring tip: When measuring flour, never scoop the cup into the flour, as it condenses the flour and causes you to use more than the recipe intends. Instead, spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level it with a knife.
  10. Baking tip: The key to perfectly puffed popovers is to keep the oven closed during the entire baking process. As tempting as it is to peek, keep that door shut!
