Popovers earn their name by their characteristic popping over the edge of the pan as they bake. Similar to Yorkshire pudding, they can be enjoyed in both sweet and savory combinations.
National Raspberry Popover Day is the second popover holiday on the calendar. In March, we celebrated National Blueberry Popover Day.

Completely Delicious Raspberry Popovers
Total Time: 50 minutes
Yield: 6 large popovers
Ingredients
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup (237 ml, 8 fl oz) whole milk
• 2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter
• 1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Zest of 1 lemon
• Handful of fresh raspberries
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Using a microwave or stovetop, melt the butter. Coat the popover pan generously with melted butter. Place pan in the oven to heat it up while the oven finishes preheating.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.
4. Using a separate bowl combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, salt, and lemon zest. Add these the egg mixture and stir until just combined. It's okay if it's a little lumpy.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each cup to about 2/3 full. Scatter a few raspberries over the tops of each cup or mash the raspberries and fold a spoonful into the mixture of each cup.
6. Bake until puffed and golden, about 35-45 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve immediately, popovers will deflate slightly as they cool.
Notes:
If you don't have a popover pan, a muffin pan will work just fine.
