Foolproof Yorkshire Pudding Recipe
Yorkshire pudding is a classic, crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside dish that perfectly complements a roast beef dinner with lashings of gravy. The secret? Start with hot, sizzling butter to make these puff up beautifully!

Prepare Your Ingredients:
Gather your eggs, milk, flour, and butter. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
-
Mix the Batter:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth. Gradually stir in the flour, mixing just until the batter is lump-free.
-
Heat the Muffin Tin:
Divide the butter evenly among the cups of a 12-cup muffin tin—about 1/2 teaspoon per cup. Place the tin in the hot oven for 2–3 minutes, or until the butter melts and starts to sizzle.
-
Add the Batter:
Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven. Quickly pour the batter into each cup, dividing it evenly.
-
Bake to Perfection:
Return the tin to the oven and bake for 5 minutes. Without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for about 25 minutes, or until the puddings are puffed and golden.
-
Serve Hot:
Remove the Yorkshire puddings from the oven and serve immediately alongside your roast beef dinner and plenty of gravy.
Tips for Success:
-
- Don’t open the oven door while baking—it can prevent the puddings from puffing up!
- Serve them straight from the oven for maximum crispiness.
