Pop-over for a cause
Original recipe I modified from here - http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/healthy-recipes/NU00536
Ingredients:
1 cup soymilk
1 cup whole wheat flour
about 3/4 cup of liquid egg whites (or 4 egg whites)
non-stick cooking spray
1 cup whole wheat flour
about 3/4 cup of liquid egg whites (or 4 egg whites)
non-stick cooking spray
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Make sure you generously coat 6 muffin cup tins with cooking spray or else your popovers might get a bit stuck on. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites and soymilk together.
Add in the flour and whisk until smooth. Fill the greased muffin tin about 2/3 full.
Bake in the top part of the oven until golden brown and puffy. Peek in on your popovers after about 15 minutes, but don't open the oven door! It may take up to 20-30 minutes, depending on your oven and size of muffin tins. Once they are done, serve immediately and enjoy.
Yummy note: So reflecting back on this... They didn't pop-up like I was hoping, nor was the texture up to my perfection. However, it did yield in a lighter biscuit like muffin that my younger kiddo loved. I thought it was good too, but not great. So I went researching it a bit, and saw that my egg whites and milk might have been better off at room temperature instead of directly out of the cold refrigerator. Also, perhaps heating up the pan in the oven before pouring the mixture into the cups would have been helpful too. Ah, oh well, I guess I will be testing this recipe even more.. If you have any suggestions, please let me know what might work with my recipe modifications. If you want the original list of ingredients, please check the original recipe.
