Ingredients

　　1 cup sifted all-purpose flour

　　1/2 teaspoon salt

　　2 large eggs

　　1 cup milk

　　melted unsalted butter for brushing the popover pan

　　Into a bowl sift together the flour and the salt. In a small bowl whisk together the eggs and the milk. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring, and stir the batter until it is smooth. In a preheated 450°F. oven heat a six-cup popover pan or six 2/3-cup custard cups for 5 minutes, or until it is hot, brush the cups with the melted butter, and fill them half full with the batter. Bake the popovers in the middle of the 450°F. oven for 20 minutes, reduce the heat to 375°F., and bake the popovers for 20 minutes more, or until they are golden brown and crisp.
