Chatelaine Triple Tested

Packed with fresh spring herbs and buttery Yorkshire pudding flavour, these irresistible popovers are perfect for serving at brunch or dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp canola oil

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 tbsp finely chopped basil

  • 1 tbsp finely chopped chives

  • 2 tsp finely chopped tarragon

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 3 eggs, at room temperature

  • 1 cup milk, at room temperature

  • 1 tbsp butter, melted

Instructions

  • PREHEAT oven to 450F. Measure 1/2 tsp oil into each cup of a muffin pan. Swirl muffin pan, then heat in oven for 5 min.

  • STIR flour together with herbs and salt in a large bowl.

  • WHISK eggs in a small bowl. Whisk in milk and butter. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and whisk just until combined. (It’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.)

  • REMOVE muffin pan from oven and immediately fill each cup with a scant 1/4 cup batter.

  • BAKE in centre of oven until popovers puff up and are dark golden, 18 to 20 min. Serve warm.

Kitchen tip: For best results, use regular vegetable oil to coat the muffin tins. We tried using vegetable-oil spray instead, but we didn’t get the results we wanted.
