Popovers with Fruit

Popovers with Fruit
Makes 6 Servings

1 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. milk
1 egg
Applesauce, marmalade, preserves, jelly or canned fruit

Mix the flour, salt, and milk in a bowl, and then drop in the unbeaten
egg. Beat all with a rotary egg beater until the mixture is perfectly
smooth and free from lumps. Grease and warm gem irons or popover cups.
Then fill them about two-thirds full of the popover batter. Bake in a
moderate oven for about 45 minutes or until the popovers can be lifted
from the cups and do not shrink when removed from the oven.
To add the fruit, cut a slit in the side of the popovers as soon as they are removed from the oven and insert a few spoonfuls of fruit. These may be served either warm or cold as a breakfast dish, or they may be sprinkled with powdered sugar and served with cream for a dessert or a lunch dish.
