Super-easy yorkshire puddings

Yorkshire puddings are a classic British dish often served as a side with roast dinners. Light, airy, and deliciously crisp, they are surprisingly easy to make. This super-easy Yorkshire puddings recipe requires only a few simple ingredients and can be prepared in no time. Perfect for impressing your guests or enjoying a warm, comforting treat at home.

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
120g
1 tsp salt
5g
2 eggs
100g
3/4 cup milk (1% fat)
180g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
2. Prepare the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
- Create a well in the center of the flour mixture.
- Crack the eggs into the well.
- Gradually whisk the eggs into the flour until you have a smooth paste.
- Slowly add the milk while continuously whisking to create a lump-free batter.
- Let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes; this helps the flour to fully hydrate and the gluten to relax.
3. Heat the Muffin Tin:
- Place a small amount of oil (vegetable or sunflower oil works well) into each cup of a muffin tin.
- Put the muffin tin into the preheated oven for about 10 minutes to get the oil very hot (almost smoking).
4. Pour the Batter:
- Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven.
- Quickly and carefully pour the batter into each cup, filling them about halfway.
5. Bake the Yorkshire Puddings:
- Place the muffin tin back into the oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the puddings are puffed up, golden brown, and crispy on the outside. Do not open the oven door during the first 15 minutes of baking, as this can cause the puddings to deflate.
6. Serve Immediately:
- Once baked, remove the puddings from the oven and serve immediately while they’re hot and crisp.

Tips:

- Preheat your oven and the pan.: Make sure your oven is fully preheated and your muffin tray or pudding tin is hot before pouring in the batter. This helps the puddings rise properly.

- Let the batter rest.: Allow your batter to rest for at least 30 minutes before pouring it into the hot tin. This can help the puddings to rise better.

- Consistency is key.: Aim for a batter that's smooth and lump-free. It should have a consistency similar to heavy cream.

- Don't open the oven door.: Avoid opening the oven door during the first half of the cooking time, as this can cause the puddings to deflate.

- Serve immediately.: Yorkshire puddings are best enjoyed fresh from the oven, so serve them right away to enjoy their crispy texture.

And there you have it—super-easy Yorkshire puddings that are golden and crispy on the outside, yet soft and airy on the inside. Whether you're serving them alongside a traditional roast or enjoying them on their own, these puddings are sure to be a hit. Remember, the key to perfect Yorkshire puddings is a hot oven and a swift approach, so don’t delay once your batter is ready.
