Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 125g plain flour (about 1 cup)
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 150ml whole milk
  • Vegetable oil (2 tsp per muffin tin well or compartment)

Instructions

  • Whisk the Eggs: Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk until light and frothy.
  • Add the Dry Ingredients: Sift flour and salt into the eggs. Gradually whisk it in to form a smooth, thick batter.
  • Incorporate the Milk: Slowly pour in the milk while whisking continuously until the batter is lump-free and smooth.
  • Let the Batter Rest: Cover the bowl and let the batter sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat the Oven and Oil: Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C fan)/425°F. Add 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil into each well of two 4-hole Yorkshire pudding tins or a deep muffin tray.
  • Heat the Oil: Place the tins in the oven for 12–15 minutes until the oil is very hot—this is key for that high rise!
  • Pour the Batter: Carefully pour the batter into each hot, oiled compartment until half full. It should sizzle as it hits the oil.
  • Bake: Return the tins to the oven and bake for 15 minutes until puffed, golden, and crisp. Don’t open the door during baking!
  • Serve Immediately: Serve hot with roast beef, gravy, or your favorite sides.

Notes

  • For mini Yorkshire puddings, use a 12-hole muffin tray and reduce oil to 1 tsp per cup. Bake for 12–15 minutes.
  • Letting the batter rest is not optional—it makes a real difference in texture.
  • Don’t overfill the tins. Less is more if you want a sky-high puff.
