Cinnamon-Orange Popovers
1 c. all-purpose unbleached white flour,
2 tsp.. freshly grated orange or tangerine zest,
2 tsp.. poppy seeds,
1 tsp. ground cinnamon,
1/2 tsp. salt,
1 c. skim milk, at room temperature,
3 egg whites, lightly beaten,
1 tbsp. canola or other vegetable oil,
deep popover molds or muffin tins, sprayed with nonstick coating

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place the dry ingredients (the first 5 ingredients) in a mixing bowl and make a well in the center. Add the milk, egg white, and oil and whisk just to mix. The batter should be the consistency of heavy cream; add a little more milk if necessary. Pour the batter into the molds, filling each mold one-third to half full.
Bake the popovers for 15 minutes without opening the oven door. Lower the heat to 350 degrees F and continue baking for 30 minutes, or until the popovers are puffed and well-browned. Unmold and serve at once.
Makes 6 to 8 large popovers, 10 to 12 small ones.
