I know it's not a popular opinion these days, but to me, a meal just isn't a meal without bread. Whether it's biscuits, rolls, garlic bread, a french loaf, or just a piece of white bread to sop up the gravy, a meal just isn't complete unless it's sitting there on the side of your plate.
But seeing as how I have yet to master homemade biscuits that can't be substituted for hockey pucks, I have fallen in love with these wonderful little breads. The popover. Yes, I know it's generally eaten with jam as a side for a tea or brunch. But for those days when I want (ie. need) a quick and tasty bread for a meal, these work great. Takes about 5 minutes to mix up, pop them in the oven while everything else is cooking and voila..
Preheat the oven to 425'. Grease the cups of a small (6 cup) muffin tin and place in the oven.
(yes, while it's empty).
Whisk the eggs.
Mix together the eggs, flour, sugar and salt.
Add the water....
then the milk.....
whisking together until the batter is smooth.
Remove the pan from the oven. Pour into the cups a little more than half way full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes .
Enjoy!
