Ingredients

• 2 cups milk, warmed
• 4 eggs
• 2 cups flower
• ¾ heaping tbsp salt
• 1 ⅛ cups grated gruyere cheese
• Popover pan

Directions

1. Place the popover pan in the oven. Heat the oven and pan to 350°.
2. Gently warm the milk over low heat and set aside.

6. Slowly add this dry mixture and gently combine until mostly smooth.
7. Once combined, remove the popover pan from the oven and spray with non-stick vegetable spray.

9. Top each popover with approximately 2 ½ tbsp of the grated gruyere.
10. Base at 350° for 50 minutes, rotating pan half a turn after 15 minutes of baking.
11. Remove from the oven, remove from the pan and serve immediately.
