These classic Yorkshire puddings are light, airy, and golden brown, perfect for serving alongside a traditional roast dinner. They’re easy to make and guaranteed to impress!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil or beef dripping (for the tins)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a muffin tin or Yorkshire pudding tin in the oven to heat.
  2. Mix the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the eggs and gradually mix in the milk until you have a smooth, lump-free batter. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  3. Heat the Oil: Remove the hot tin from the oven. Quickly add about ½ teaspoon of oil or beef dripping into each cup and return the tin to the oven until the oil is smoking hot.
  4. Pour the Batter: Carefully pour the batter into the hot oil, filling each cup about halfway.
  5. Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes without opening the oven door. The puddings should puff up and turn golden brown.
  6. Serve Immediately: Remove from the tin and serve warm.

Notes

  • For best results, let the batter rest before cooking to improve texture.
  • Avoid opening the oven during baking, as this can cause the puddings to deflate.
