Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Serving Size 12 Popovers

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups all purpose flour

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F with a muffin pan inside while you mix the popover batter. 
  • Warm milk in a saucepan just until it feels warm to the touch. 
  • In a large bowl, combine milk, eggs, sourdough discard, and salt. Then add the flour. Do not overmix. The batter will be thinner than pancake batter.
  • Carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven and brush it with melted butter or olive oil. 
  • Quickly divide the batter between 12 muffin cups filling them to the top. 
  • Bake for 15 minutes and then drop the temperature to 375°F for an additional 15-20 minutes. 
  • Once the popovers are golden brown, remove them from the oven and serve immediately!
