Ingredients
  

  • 2 large farm-fresh eggs
  • 100 grams all-purpose flour
  • 100 milliliters whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheating is critical. Set your oven to 220°C (428°F). A hot oven helps achieve that glorious rise. Be patient; it’s worth the wait!
  2. In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs. Add the flour, milk, vanilla extract, honey, and a pinch of salt. Whisk everything together until you achieve a smooth consistency. The batter should be light and airy, which contributes to that beautiful fluff.
  3. Pour the vegetable oil into a muffin tray, filling each cup about halfway. Place it in the oven for a few minutes, until the oil is hot. This crucial step ensures that the puddings will crisp up nicely.
  4. Once the oil is sizzling, carefully remove the tray from the oven. Quickly pour the batter into each muffin cup, filling them about halfway. Returning the tray to the oven, bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
  5. Once out of the oven, serve your Yorkshire puddings immediately. They are best enjoyed fresh.

Notes

  • Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your eggs and milk are at room temperature. This leads to a fluffier texture.
  • Do Not Open the Oven: Resist the urge to peek before the time is up. Opening the oven can cause puddings to collapse.
  • Use a Heavy Muffin Tin: A heavy tin retains heat well, helping achieve that beautiful rise.
  • Perfect Oil: Use an oil with a high smoke point, like vegetable or sunflower oil. This guarantees a nice crisp.
  • Experiment with Herbs: Add herbs or spices to the batter for an extra kick. Rosemary or garlic powder can work wonders.
