A mediocre cinnamon raisin bagel with peanut butter and strawberry jelly.

It’s a butter crock. Brand is Le Creuset if you want one.

What is a popover? Is that like some sort of bread?

I had a couple of eggs with onions and mozz cheese along with a couple slices of bacon that I oven baked last night for about 3 hours at 250 degrees.

Looking forward to the crock pot chicken for dinner tonight!

I actually knew the brand by looking at it because I’m kind of a cast iron geek.

It’s a pastry, sort of like a new england offshoot of a yorkshire pudding but made with butter instead of beef drippings. They puff up immensly in the oven and end up largely hollow. The bread is chewy & moist rather than flaky.

Does that mean you’re a geek made of cast iron?

No. I’m made out of calzones, but I was cooked in cast iron.

Do you need to cultivate yeast to make it? Ive always wanted to try making some of my own bread but I hate messing with yeast.

No yeast at all. They’re actually really simple, I use this recipe:

Not at all. The ones pictured are a bit overdone, I left them in for maybe two minutes too long. Ideally you want them the color of a croissant, so that there’s a bit of a crust but they’re not fully hard on top.
