Yield
12 popovers
Ingredients:
1¼ cup (305g) whole milk, room temperature
2 large (130g) eggs, room temperature
1 ½ teaspoon (5g) kosher salt
½ cup (100g) sourdough discard
1 tablespoon (14g) melted butter for the batter, plus 1-2 tablespoons melted butter for the muffin tin
¾ cup (104g) Organic Edison all-purpose flour
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Prepare a muffin tin by brushing the cups generously with melted butter.
- Add the milk, eggs, and kosher salt to the jar of a blender. Blend for about 20 seconds on medium, until smooth. Add the sourdough discard and blend for about 10 seconds more. With the blender running, trickle in the melted butter.
- Add the flour to the blender and blend for about 20 seconds, until very smooth and a little frothy.
- Pour batter into each of the muffin tins to fill about ¾ of the way.
- Place the muffin tin carefully in the oven (I usually put an empty sheet pan on the lowest rack, underneath the muffin tin, just in case butter spills over, so I don’t get a messy bottom of my oven.)
- Set the timer for 15 minutes. Honestly, I put a piece of painter’s tape over the top edge of the oven door at this point so no one accidentally opens it.
- After 15 minutes, turn the oven down to 350°F but don’t open that door. Set the timer for 15 minutes more.
- After 30 minutes, you can open the oven. If they’re golden brown on top, you can remove them, otherwise bake 5-10 minutes more, until golden-brown.
- Remove from the oven and carefully remove the popovers from the tin. Eat immediately.
