Popover
A popover is a recipe of American origin. A light, hollow roll made from an egg batter similar to that used in making Yorkshire pudding. The name "popover" comes from the fact that the batter swells or "pops" over the top of the muffin tin while baking. They can also be baked in individual custard cups.

Best recipe reviewTall Yorkies 5/5 Doesn't really matter what you call them - theses are just tall Yorkshire puddings. |
These are best server directly from the oven. For authentic popovers, use a large muffin tray rather than a Yorkshire pudding tray.
Recently whilst reading John Steinbeck's Sweet Thursday, I noticed a reference to popovers and wondered what they were:
Joe Elegant was a pale young man with bangs. He smoked foreign cigarettes in a long ebony holder and he cooked for the Bear Flag. The girls said he made the best popovers in the world, and he could give a massage that would shake the kinks out of a Saturday night when the fleet was in.
