Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sourdough starter (active and bubbly)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon melted butter (for greasing pan)
Instructions

- In a mixing bowl, whisk together sourdough starter, milk, and eggs until smooth.
- Add flour and salt and whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and brush each cup with melted butter to prevent sticking.
- Pour the batter evenly into each cup, filling about 3/4 full.
- Bake at 450°F (230°C) for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 20 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
- Avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent collapse.
- Serve immediately with butter, jam, or savory toppings.
Notes
For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or herbs to the batter before baking. Popovers are best served fresh and warm to maintain their crisp texture.
