Ingredients

2 1/2 cups whole milk 

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 

1 teaspoon coarse salt 

6 large eggs, lightly whisked 

Unsalted butter, softened, for pans 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Whisk together milk, flour, and salt. Whisk in eggs. (Mixture will be lumpy.)

Heat two 6-cup popover pans in oven for 5 minutes, then quickly brush cups generously with butter. Fill each cup a little more than halfway with batter. Bake for 20 minutes.

Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes. Turn out popovers, and serve warm.
