When I run out of food in the house popovers are my go-to meal. One egg, half a cup each of milk and flour, a pinch of salt and a tablespoon of butter (half melted for the batter and half to butter the popover pan) and I have three popovers to fill me up.

I dump everything in at once, barely whisk the batter – it’s crazy lumpy – and don’t preheat the oven. Still works like a charm. So easy.

A popover pan has cups that are deeper and narrower than a muffin tin. The good ones are made of cast iron so they really heat up when you stick them in the oven ahead of time. The “pop” aspects of things is a bit more guaranteed with a popover pan, but they are real cupboard-space-eaters so I make due with my tin muffin pan….

Yay! These are called Yorkshire Puddings in the UK – I’ve often wondered if there’s an American version. I’ve only ever used muffin tins, what’s the difference between that and a popover pan?

Lovely. Never made them before and thanks for the tip on skipping the muffin cup. Would using a popover pan make much of a difference?

Beautiful photograph as always. I can’t wait to try this one since I just bought a kumquat tree.

These look so good! Yet another reminder that I really need to buy a popover pan.

Well how brilliant is this? I can taste it, just to read the ingredients. Sounds spot on, this one. Can’t wait to give it a go.

Beautiful, simple food, I always forget how nice mint and parsely are together.

OMG. Kate, I had totally forgotten about that origin of the chocolate-pudding-for-dinner phenomenon. I can’t get on the dinner bandwagon, but I will say that pudding makes a kick ass breakfast.
