Palmer's Pecan Popovers

Submitted by DailyInspiration

"Recipe is taken from my America's Best Recipes cookbook. The recipe states that they are light and airy on the inside and crispy on the outside -- the addition of the pecans sound wonderful! The recipe also recommends serving these popovers with honey butter (recipe included)."

I made these and had no luck whatsoever. They came out flat as pancakes! I believe it is the honey that prevented them from being popovers! It was entirely my fault, I misread the recipe and mixed the butter and honey into the batter, duh, silly me. I will make them again THE RIGHT WAY!
