Yorkshire Pudding

Posted on by

A delicious accompaniment to any roast or with the addition of a few sausages you can make an old style kid’s favourite, Toad in the Hole :)

Ingredients

4 eggs

2 cups whole milk

2 cups self raising flour

dash of salt & pepper

butter (enough to grease muffin tin)

Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and warm a muffin tin (this is the only way to get your Yorkshire pudding to cook properly, and that was told to me by a lady from Yorkshire so I believe it!)

In mixer bowl combine eggs, milk, flour and pepper & salt. Beat vigorously with fork for 1 1/2 minutes.

Pour in batter into preheated muffin tin no more than half-way. Bake in 400 degree F oven for 30 minutes. Serve with a roast, baked potatoes, and your favourite veggies.
