Classic Wholegrain Popovers
INGREDIENTS
butter for greasing baking cups
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon melted butter
3/4 cup fine whole-grain flour
1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1. Preheat oven to 450F. Lightly butter 6 large popover cups or custard cups, or 9 muffin cups, and dust with sugar or flour, then set aside.
2. Beat the milk, melted butter, flour, and salt in a medium bowl until just smooth, then add eggs one at a time, beating until incorporated.
3. Fill cups 3/4 full (leave plenty of room), and bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Without opening the oven door, lower the heat to 350F and bake 20 minutes longer.
4. You�ll need to remove a popover to test for doneness (it will deflate if it�s not cooked enough).
5. Serve immediately, after inserting a sharp knife in the popovers so steam can escape.

INGREDIENTS

1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
Combine all ingredients and mound in a decorative little serving dish to serve alongside popovers, or waffles, or pancakes

When my son was little, one of his favorite outings was to a local seafood place that served popovers warm from the oven along with heavenly strawberry butter. Truthfully, we could have made our meal out of just those popovers! I always thought there must be some mystique to making them, but one snowy day when he had a craving for popovers but we couldn�t go out to get any, my son convinced me to try making a batch myself and lo, and behold--it was easy, and they were delicious!
SIMPLE SOLUTION: Now you can make them, too. Popovers work equally well as a breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner-side, or dessert. At this time of year, we like them with apple butter or pumpkin-flavored butter (recipe included), but plain butter works fine, too. And you don�t need special popover cups, either: a muffin tin or custard cups will work just fine.
