Luncheon Popovers

Ingredients

 * 2 cups sifted flour
 * 1 teaspoon salt
 * 2 Tablespoons melted shortning (I use oil)
 * 2 cups milk
 * 4 eggs, slightly beaten

Directions

 * 1) In a bowl, beat eggs until yellow and thick. Then add the salt, and oil.
 * 2) Next, add the flourand milk alternately until well blended and smooth.
 * 3) Fill the greased cupcake pans or the greased pyrex dishes (approximately these dishes hold about 1/2 to 3/4 cups of batter(dough).
 * 4) Fill the pans with 2/3 cup of batter.
 * 5) Bake in a preheated 220 degree C. oven for 30 minutes, now turn the oven off and with a sharp knife or fork prick the popover and allow them to sit in hot oven for another 10 minutes.
 * 6) I like to remove themfrom the pans immediately so moisture does not ruin them. Put them in a napkin-lined basket.
 * 7) Serve warm with butter and Jelly or Jam.
