Perfect Yorkshire Pudding Recipes

BEST YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 230C/fan 210C/gas 8.
• Drizzle a little sunflower oil evenly into two 4-hole Yorkshire pudding tins or two 12-hole non-stick muffin tins and place in the oven to heat through.
• To make the batter, tip 140g plain flour into a bowl and beat in 4 eggs until smooth.
• Gradually add 200ml milk and carry on beating until the mix is completely lump-free. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pour the batter into a jug, then remove the hot tins from the oven. Carefully and evenly pour the batter into the holes.
• Place the tins back in the oven and leave undisturbed for 20-25 mins until the puddings have puffed up and browned.
• Serve immediately. You can now cool them and freeze for up to 1 month.

YORKSHIRE PUDDING RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the flour in a jug and make a well in the centre.
• Add the eggs and stir together with a balloon whisk, bringing the flour into the centre with the eggs bit-by-bit.
• Add in the milk and stir again with the whisk until combined. It's fine if it's a little bit lumpy.
• Place the jug in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (up to overnight) to chill. This is important to allow the flour granules to swell (also, cold batter hitting a very hot pan should result in a good rise).
• Preheat the oven to 220C/425F.
• Add ½ tsp of lard to each hole of a 12-hole metal bun tin(*see recipe note 1 below for larger Yorkshire puddings). Place in the oven to heat for 10 minutes.
• Take the jug of Yorkshire pudding batter of the fridge, add in the salt and pepper and stir once more with the whisk.
• Open the oven door, and if safe to do so(* note 2), pull out the tray and quickly (be careful, the melted lard will be very hot!), pour the batter into each of the prepared muffin holes. Close the door immediately and cook for 15-18 minutes until risen and golden.
