Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place a 6-cup popover pan or a standard muffin tin in the oven to heat while you prepare the batter.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt to combine evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine the milk and eggs. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Be careful not to overmix.
Whisk in the melted butter until fully incorporated.
Carefully remove the hot popover pan from the oven. Spray each cup lightly with nonstick cooking spray or brush with butter to prevent sticking.
Pour the batter into the prepared cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Immediately return the pan to the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 450°F (232°C). Do not open the oven during this time to ensure the popovers rise properly.
After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and continue baking for another 20 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and crisp.
Carefully remove the popovers from the pan and serve immediately while they are warm and fresh.
