Light As Air Popovers

My favorite popover recipe is the Jordan Pond version I've previously written about. This one is a little bit easier and a little bit less wonderful than the JPs. But sometimes you just wanna go with what's fastest and easiest, and for those days this recipe is definitely spot on. Martin likes to eat these with jam slathered inside. I actually like mine plain though I certainly won't cry foul if a dollop or two of butter somehow falls into those lovely, craggy, eggy insides of my popover.
