Yorkshire Pudding Recipe

5 from 3 votes
Nothing makes a roast beef dinner more special than Yorkshire Puddings. They also go great with a pork roast or a roast chicken, too. Light and crispy on the outside and chewy and custard-like on the inside. They really are something special.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cold water
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup oil or beef dripping

Equipment

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they are smooth and bubbly.
  2. Add the water and milk. Mix well.
  3. Add the flour and the salt. Whisk until all ingredients are blended and you have a pancake-like batter.
  4. Refrigerate the batter while the oven is preheating. You can make the batter 3 - 4 hours ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator, the colder the batter is the better .
  5. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  6. Pour 2 teaspoons of oil into each cavity of the cupcake pan. You can also use beef drippings if you have them or a combination of both.
  7. Once the oven is at temperature, add the cupcake pan to the oven.
  8. Heat the pan for at least 10-12 minutes. It is a very important step. The pan and the oil need to be hot, almost smoking.
  9. Quickly pour the batter evenly into each cupcake cavity. You will fill each cavity about halfway. When pouring the batter, it will sizzle. Be careful.
  10. Immediately place the pan back in the oven and cook for 18-22 minutes. DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN for at least the first 15 minutes, preferably the entire cooking time, ie. 20 minutes.
  11. Serve and enjoy immediately!
