Recipe: Popovers

Dietitian's tip: To make cheese popovers, add 1 tablespoon batter into the bottom of each cup. Top with 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese and fill the cups 2/3 full with remaining batter. The Parmesan cheese adds 7 calories, a trace amount of fat and cholesterol, and 25 milligrams of sodium to each popover.

Preheat the oven to 425 F. Generously coat 6 large metal or glass muffin molds with cooking spray. Heat the muffin molds in the oven for 2 minutes.
