Description

If you've never baked Yorkshire pudding before, this simple, 5-ingredient recipe is nearly fool-proof and takes less than 10 minutes.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Pour oil equally into 6 cups of a Yorkshire pudding tin and place in the oven to heat.
2 Line up 3 identical glasses. Add eggs to the first glass. Add milk to the second glass; it should come to the height of the eggs in the first glass. Add 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour to the third glass; it should match the height of the eggs and milk in the other glasses. Whisk measured eggs, milk, and flour together in a mixing bowl. Season the batter with salt and pepper.
3 Remove hot oiled tin from the oven. Pour batter into the cups and return tin immediately to the oven.
4 Bake puddings in the preheated oven until well-risen, 4 to 5 minutes.
