Ingredients

2 eggs

1 cup milk

1 cup flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar

2 tablespoons butter, melted

Peach butter (recipe follows)

PEACH BUTTER:

1/2 cup cut up peaches, fresh or frozen

1 tablespoon orange juice

1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 pound salted butter

Directions

  1. In a bowl whisk together the eggs and milk. Add the flour, salt and sugar and whisk to blend in well. Whisk in the melted butter. Grease 2 mini muffin pans well or 1 popover mold. Fill cups half full with batter. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes then turn the oven down to 350 degrees and bake for another 10 to15 minutes till until puffed and golden brown. They will be hollow in the center.
  2. Peach Butter: In a small saucepan, bring the peaches, orange juice and sugar to a boil. Turn down the heat and continue cooking until the peaches are tender and cooked down to a jam-like consistency. Let cool. In a bowl, using a wooden spoon, blend the butter with the cooked peaches, making a "compound" butter. Chill in a ceramic pot till ready to use and soften slightly when serving.

Most popover recipes fail to mention the most important thing about making popovers: The popover pan should be put in the oven and heated up before pouring in batter. This is essential go get popovers to "pop" and grow to those glorious hollow culinary treats. The hot popover cups cause the batter to instantly cook on the edge of the cup and the batter has nowhere to go but UP! I learned this after many of my popovers never popped and I talked to a chef at Mariposa restaurant in Neiman Marcus in Honolulu. So, always use a popover pan and ALWAYS HEAT THE PAN!
