Description

Delicious and crispy Yorkshire puddings, perfect as a side for your roast dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp Sunflower oil (See notes)
  • 150 g Plain flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 Eggs (Medium, free-range)
  • 200 ml Milk (Whole or semi-skimmed)
  • 50 ml Water

Instructions

  1. Whisk the flour and salt with the eggs until you have a very smooth, very thick paste.
  2. Add about a third of the milk, whisk until smooth, add the rest, along with the water and again whisk until totally smooth.
  3. Transfer your batter into a large jug if you have one (this will help you to safely pour later).
  4. For best results, if you have time, pop into the fridge to rest for 15-30 minutes (you can leave for longer in the fridge if it’s helpful to your timings, but you’ll need to give it a very good stir and may need to add a little more milk to return it to it’s original consistency).
  5. Preheat the oven to 220℃/425F fan, 240℃/475F or Gas Mark 9.
  6. When you’re ready to cook, pour a little of the oil into each of the muffin tray holes and put into the oven for 10 minutes until the oil is smoking hot.
  7. Very carefully, open the oven door and remove the tray of hot oil (close the oven door quickly).
  8. Working very quickly, pour or spoon the batter into each muffin hole. (It should be hissing and bubbling).
  9. Return to the oven and reduce the temperature to 200°C/400F. Cook for 30 minutes until they are a deep dark golden colour and very crispy. DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN until at least 25 minutes has passed!
  10. Use the following quantities instead: 75g of plain flour, 100ml milk, 3 tbsp water, 1 egg for a smaller batch.
  11. Preheat the oil in the tin for 10 minutes at 220℃/425F fan, 240℃/475F or Gas Mark 9.
  12. Carefully pour in the batter, turn the temperature down to 200℃/400F and cook for about 16 minutes.
  13. Remove from the oven and leave to cool 5 mins so it’s easier to get out of the tin.

Notes

  • For a smaller batch, use 75g of plain flour, 100ml milk, 3 tbsp water, and 1 egg.
