Whole Wheat Popovers are a twist on a classic American recipe, and a perfect addition to any meal. With fluffy insides and golden, crispy outsides, these popovers have been a staple for generations. The addition of whole wheat flour makes this recipe a healthier, more nutritious version that can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. This recipe is perfect for anyone—beginners or seasoned bakers—who wants to enjoy a hot, freshly made popover with minimal effort.

Instructions

1.	Preheat oven to 450°F.
2.	Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
3.	In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, and salt.
4.	In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and melted butter.
5.	Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until smooth.
6.	Fill each muffin cup 3/4 full with batter.
7.	Bake for 15 minutes. Without opening the oven, reduce the temperature to 375°F and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and crisp on the outside.
8.	Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes.

PROS

Whole wheat flour in the recipe adds nutrition and fiber to the popovers.

They are easy to make and require only a few ingredients.

CONS

Popovers may not rise properly if the batter is not mixed thoroughly.

Over-mixing the batter can also result in tough popovers.
