Favorite Popovers

"My brother is diabetic and because these popovers have such little flour, he loves them. I have these down to a science -- very little cleanup. These are delicious and light. I never have any leftovers -- everyone covets them and forgets the Miss Manners' rule about not taking the last one from the basket."

  1. My brother is diabetic, too, as well as myself and my DH, which is why I made this recipe, the carbs are nice and low. It was VERY easy to make. They tasted a little eggy to me, but all I had was jumbo sized eggs, so I may have had a little I knew popovers are supposed to be kind of hollow, but mine had a hole all the way through the bottom. However, I put them in the upper oven, when I was cooking in the lower oven, so my pan may have started out too hot. I will definately make these again!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I love collecting antique cookbooks -- my current favorite, from the 1960's, has a fabulous introduction that tells the reader, "It is now socially acceptable for women to buy their own meat." Ha! I can frequently be found sitting on the kitchen stool, knitting while I wait for my creations to emerge from the oven. I love translating complicated recipes into simple versions I can share with my family and friends.
