  • A pinch of salt
  • 4 beaten eggs

How To Make Yorkshire Puddings

1

Preheat the oven to 240ºC (220ºC Fan).

2

Once the flour is fully mixed and the mixture thickens, gradually add a small amount of milk to loosen it. Stir continuously until all the flour is incorporated. Beat vigorously until the thick mixture becomes smooth, then gradually add the remaining milk. Chill the batter in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow it to rest.

3

Meanwhile, spoon a small amount of fat into each of the eight moulds in a deep muffin tin. Place the tin on a baking tray in the preheated oven to heat the fat.

4

Once the fat is hot, fill the muffin moulds about half to two-thirds full with the batter and promptly return them to the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the puddings are well risen, deep golden in color, and crisp on the outside.

5

Remove from the oven, take each pudding out of its mould, and drain on a tray lined with kitchen paper. Serve immediately.

Recipe Note

Resting the Batter: Allow the batter to rest for at least 30 minutes before baking to achieve a lighter texture.

Preheating the Tin: Ensure the muffin tin is preheated with oil in the oven to achieve a crisp rise.

Oven Temperature: Bake at a high temperature (240°C) to ensure the puddings puff up properly.

Serving Tip: Serve immediately after baking to enjoy their full texture and flavor.

Storage: Leftover puddings can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in the oven to regain their crispness.
