Breakfast Popovers II

Nothing beats having freshly baked breakfast every morning.
Got it from my favourite food blog, thebakerwhocooks.

 

Presenting fresh from the oven: Breakfast Popovers!
Crisp on the outside, soft on the inside… Yummmm.

 



Popovers dust with icing sugar, drizzled with hot chocolate sauce….

 

It taste almost like pancakes, just that it is in a fluffy form.
Please remember to butter your tins generously as the popovers tend to stick to the pan.
Also, the last trick to ensure fluffiness – Halfway through the baking process, poke the popovers with a skewer to release some steam off it. This way, you’ll end up with a crispier shell… Like mine!
(If this is not done, your popover will have a thicker and muffin-liked texture)

Good morning… and enjoy!
