Yorkshire Puddings

by Charlie McCarthy, Sr.

Cookware

blender
12-hole Yorkshire pudding tray or muffin tray

Ingredients

4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
4 tbsp olive oil or beef drippings

Instructions

Step 1

In a blender, combine the large eggs, milk, flour, and salt. Blend until well combined and place in the refrigerator until ready to use (allow to rest for at least 30 minutes).

Step 2

Preheat oven to 425 F

Step 3

Put 1 teaspoon of the olive oil or beef drippings into each section of a 12-hole Yorkshire pudding tray or muffin tray and put into the oven on the top shelf until very hot, almost smoking.

Step 4

As soon as you take the tray from the oven, pour in the batter to three-quarters fill the tins (it should sizzle) and immediately put back into the oven.

Step 5

Bake until the Yorkshire puddings are well risen, golden brown and crisp, 15-20 minutes. Don't open the oven door until the end or they might collapse.
