Yorkshire Pudding

Makes 1 large, 8 medium or 12 smaller Yorkshire puddings

Homemade Yorkshire pudding is traditionally served with Roast Beef. Make it in muffin trays for individual puddings, or a large oven tray, and always cook in a really hot oven.  Some people like to use half milk and half water for the liquid, some like to use self-raising flour instead of plain although this batter should not be left to stand. If you ever have any Yorkshire pudding left over it is delicious served with jam. This batter is also used to make Toad in the Hole.

Change Quantities:
  1. Divide the fat between the holes of your baking tray or put it into a large baking dish. Pre-heat the oven.
  2. Put the flour and salt into a large bowl or jug and stir them together. 
  3. Add the eggs and milk, beating to form a smooth batter.
  4. Refrigerate the batter for up to 12 hours – otherwise it’s ready to go.
  5. Put your prepared baking tray or dish into the oven until the fat is very hot and bubbling.
  6. Carefully remove the tray from the oven. Stir the batter and pour it into your baking tray or dish.
  7. Return the baking tray to the oven and bake smaller puddings for 15-25 minutes, larger ones for up 45 minutes depending on your preference for crispness of the pudding.

Made these today, they had lovely flavour but were a bit dense. I did halve the ingredients as I only wanted 6 yorkshires, and I did only put 1 egg in, perhaps that was my mistake..... Will try again, as I do enjoy Yorkshire puddings!

Hi Vanessa, with regards to your review we would always recommend using the 3 eggs as per the recipe and we would suggest freezing any leftovers if you did not require all 12.  Best wishes, Doves Farm.

Yorkshire pudding was too soft so I think I will add baking powder next time. Also I don't think I had the oil hot enough so will have to be careful of that.

made this with self raising as I'd run out of plain to make a toad in the hole and it came out like a dense madeira cake with sausages on the bottom!

I had two things that I was willing to make myself ill for when I was diagnosed - Beer and Yorkshire Pudding. However with this recipe that list has gone down to one. Even my hubby went back for second helpings.
