Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons beef drippings or vegetable oil

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a 12-cup muffin tin in the oven to heat up.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy.
  3. Gradually add the flour while whisking continuously until well combined.
  4. Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to form a smooth batter.
  5. Season the batter with salt and pepper, and whisk again until incorporated.
  6. Remove the hot muffin tin from the oven and add 1/2 teaspoon of beef drippings or vegetable oil to each cup.
  7. Carefully pour the batter into the hot muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
  8. Place the muffin tin back into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the Yorkshire puddings have risen and turned golden brown.
  9. Avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent the puddings from deflating.
  10. Once done, remove the Yorkshire puddings from the oven and serve immediately while they are still puffed up and crispy.
  11. Enjoy them as a delicious side dish with your favorite roast dinner or alongside a mouthwatering beef stew!
