How to make this popover recipe:

2. Grease your popover pan or muffin tray with butter. Make sure to get around the top edges as well.
3. Warm your eggs by placing them in a bowl with hot water for 10 minutes. (Use hot water from your tap, as hot as it can go.)
4. In a small bowl, heat your milk in a small pot or microwave until warm to the touch.
5. Place the popover OR muffin tray into the oven for 10 minutes.
6. In the meantime, make the batter.
7. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, warm milk, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add the all-purpose flour and parmesan cheese. Whisk until smooth. Stir in the melted butter, mixing until combined.
8. Remove the hot popover OR muffin tin from the oven and pour the batter into the cavities about ¾ full.
9. Bake for 20 minutes.
10. Reduce the heat to 350F and bake for another 12 – 15 minutes, until very golden brown.
11. Remove from the trays immediately and serve warm! Enjoy with butter, gravy, or anything you desire.
