Description
This easy Yorkshire pudding recipe is perfect for beginners, delivering crispy edges and fluffy centers in just 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
- 3 large eggs
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Vegetable oil or beef drippings (about 2 tablespoons per muffin cup)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place your empty muffin tin in the oven to heat up while you prepare the batter.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt until combined. Gradually add the flour, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. The batter should be smooth and slightly thick.
- Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the batter sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to let the flour absorb the liquid.
- Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven. Add about 2 tablespoons of oil or beef drippings to each cup. It should sizzle.
- Pour the batter evenly into the cups, filling each about halfway. Work quickly so the tin doesn’t cool down.
- Place the tin back in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the puddings are golden brown and puffed up. Resist the urge to open the oven door.
- Serve immediately with gravy, roast beef, or your favorite sides.
Notes
Preheat the muffin tin for crispy edges, let the batter rest for better texture, and avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent collapse.
