Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a popover pan or muffin tin in the oven to heat.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. It's alright if there are a few lumps in the batter.
  5. Remove the hot pan from the oven and spray each cup generously with non-stick cooking spray.
  6. Fill each cup about 3/4 full with batter and evenly distribute the fresh blueberries among the cups.
  7. Place the pan back into the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
  8. After 20 minutes, lower the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and puffed up.
  9. Remove from the oven and let the popovers cool slightly before serving. They will deflate slightly as they cool.
  10. Serve warm and enjoy these delightful blueberry popovers!
