Why did my popovers not pop?
Too cold and you won’t get the popovers to steam internally quickly enough. But be aware that you shouldn’t make it too hot. If your milk and/or butter is hot enough to cook the eggs while mixing, the batter won’t rise. Best to use all warm ingredients in the 40-50 degrees celsius (100-120 fahrenheit) range.Click…

Also question is, why do popovers pop?Basic popovers are made with eggs, milk, and flour. The batter is thin enough to be pourable, about as thick as heavy cream. The high proportion of liquid in the batter creates steam that causes the popovers to puff up like the popover pictured below. The conversion of the liquid in the batter to steam is dramatic.Also Know, how do you stop popovers from deflating? Heating the milk helps the tops to get crispier and to keep them from deflating. Baking the popovers for a few extra minutes will keep the tops from deflating once the popovers are removed from the oven. Then, what is the secret to making popovers? Place popover pans on an 11 x 17 baking tray and place in the oven while you are preheating. Warm milk before to roughly 125 degrees before mixing with the eggs and flour. Spray popover pans vigorously with cooking spray right before pouring batter into the cups. Mix batter only until lumps are gone, do not overmix. Are popovers supposed to be hollow?Yes, they are supposed to be hollow. If you want to make it denser, add more flour.
