How To Make Fluffy Yorkshire Puddings

Whether you’re making a full batch of individual Yorkshire puddings or a giant single one ready to fill, your mixture and method remain pretty much the same.

What you'll need:

  • 175g plain flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 280ml milk
  • 2 tbsp beef dripping or oil
  • Salt & pepper

Method:

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 220C°. This will need to be turned down to 190C° when the Yorkshire puddings go in, but it needs to be super-hot first.
  2. Sieve your flour into a bowl before cracking in your eggs and adding your salt and pepper.
  3. Beat your eggs together and slowly fold in your flour before adding milk to make a smooth batter.
  4. Now the oven is hot enough, add your oil or beef dripping to your roasting tin to pre-heat it. Once it is smoking hot, add the mixture into your roasting tin (one large roasting tin for a single Yorkshire pudding or a muffin tray for individuals).
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes until they rise, ending up nice and crispy.
