Description

Crispy, golden Yorkshire pudding elevates Sunday roasts with classic British charm. Rich, airy batter creates a perfect companion for savory meats and gravy that you’ll crave at every hearty meal.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 3 large eggs
  • 100 grams (3.5 ounces) plain flour
  • 225 milliliters (7.6 fluid ounces) milk

Seasoning:

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Cooking Fat:

  • 4 tablespoons sunflower oil

Instructions

  1. Combine flour and salt in a mixing bowl, creating a smooth base for the batter.
  2. Incorporate eggs and a portion of milk, whisking vigorously until the mixture becomes uniform and free of lumps.
  3. Slowly introduce the remaining milk, continuing to whisk until the batter reaches a light, liquid-like consistency.
  4. Allow the batter to rest for 10-15 minutes, enabling the ingredients to meld and develop flavor.
  5. Preheat the oven to 220°C, ensuring a hot environment for optimal rising.
  6. Distribute oil evenly across each muffin tin compartment, then place in the oven to heat until smoking hot.
  7. Carefully pour the rested batter into the sizzling oil-filled compartments, filling each about halfway.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes without opening the oven door, allowing the puddings to rise and crisp.
  9. Remove from the oven when golden brown and dramatically puffed, serving immediately for maximum crispness and texture.

Notes

  • Let batter rest at room temperature to develop gluten and create a lighter, airier texture.
  • Use high-smoke-point oil like vegetable or sunflower for achieving maximum crispiness and golden color.
  • Ensure oil is scorching hot before adding batter to create dramatic rise and signature puffy edges.
  • For gluten-free version, substitute regular flour with a blend of rice and cornstarch to maintain similar structure.
