What is the primary leavening agent in popovers? How does this influence the baking temperature required?


Steam is the primary leavening agent. A higher baking temperature is required initially to promote conversion of water to steam and provide leavening action. The temperature is reduced after the first 15 minutes of cooking to allow additional cooking.
