Popovers with Honey Cinnamon Spread- Classic, light as air popovers served with a creamy honey cinnamon spread.

Popovers! Great for breakfast, brunch, dessert or a snack.

Wait…what’s a Popover? A popover is a baked roll made with a simple egg batter and very little sugar. They are very light and airy, plus, can be enjoyed plain or with your favorite spread/jelly.

Ingredients Needed for Popovers:

• Flour
• Eggs
• Milk
• Sugar
• Vanilla

Do I need a popover pan? No. A 12 count muffin pan will do the job. However, if you use a popover pan, your popovers will be larger. So, a muffin pan ( like I used) will give you 12 smaller popover, the popover pan will give you 6 larger popovers. 👍

Milk and Eggs: Be sure they are at room temperature before using.

Ingredients Needed for Spread:

• Honey
• Cream cheese
• Ground cinnamon

Cream cheese: I find that a cream cheese spread works better for this recipe than the standard block of cream cheese. It’s much softer and easily spreadable. However, the block of cream cheese will work just fine, just be sure to let it soften well before mixing.

Side Note about this Spread: It also goes amazing on toast, bagels and English muffins.

A few more notes:

• You don’t need to use an electric mixer for this batter. A good wire whisk works perfectly for it. Also, don’t over mix it..only whisk until batter is moist and ingredients are fully incorporated.
• Your popovers won’t be perfect and uniform looking, like a muffin. That’s OK! They will rise in different patterns and sizes. It’s also OK that some of them deflate a bit once they are removed from the oven.
• Pay attention to the oven temperatures in the recipe. You will start baking at 450 degrees, then, reduce the oven temp to 350 after 20 minutes.
• When baking, don’t open your oven door! This will cause your popovers to deflate.
