Ingredients

  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Whole milk
  • 3 Large eggs
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or beef drippings

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and milk until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to create a smooth, lump-free batter. Let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes to improve texture.

Step 5

Place a muffin tin or popover pan in the oven to preheat for about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the hot pan from the oven and quickly add 1/2 teaspoon of oil or a dollop of beef drippings into each cup. Return the pan to the oven for 2 minutes to heat the oil.

Step 7

Carefully take the pan out of the oven and immediately pour the batter evenly into the cups, filling each about halfway full.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puddings are puffed up and deeply golden brown. Resist the urge to open the oven door during cooking as this can cause them to collapse.

Step 9

Once baked, remove the Yorkshire puddings or popovers from the pan and serve immediately. They are best enjoyed fresh and warm.
