These "popped" very nicely, even though I used a muffin tin. The recipe makes 10 if using a muffin pan, bake for 28-30 minutes and they are perfect. My roast had a crust of rosemary and thyme so I put 1 tsp of each in the popovers and added a few grinds of fresh black pepper. This is a good, reliable recipe.

Based on the old English Yorkshire pudding, popovers are a quick bread classically paired with beef dishes. Make the popover batter up to two hours ahead and refrigerate until 15 minutes before you plan to bake them. Popover cups are tall and narrow so the batter "pops over" the top as it bakes; you can find a popover pan at any kitchenware shop. Muffin cups will also do (with five minutes less time in the oven), though they won't puff quite as dramatically.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 popover)
