Yorkshire Pudding Surprise!

My husband brought up wanting to make Yorkshire Pudding a few weeks ago, and I can honestly say, I wasn't sure what to expect. I was interested to find out, though! The first adventure of making Yorkshire pudding: finding a recipe that isn't in metric, or converting a metric recipe.

Here's what I ended up using:
1 cup flour with 1 tsp salt added
Beat in 4 eggs until smooth
add 200ml milk, gradually

That's all that's in the batter. You add it to the cups after heating a small (very small!) amount of oil in each cup. Everything I saw just said "a small amount." I finally found a site that listed "a pea size amount of lard/drippings" or "1/4t. of oil." Bake for 20 minutes at 450 degrees.

While I knew they were supposed to puff up, I was so excited when I went to the oven to check on them! This would be a really fun recipe to do with kids - seeing them all puffed up in the oven is pretty cool! Here's how ours turned out:


They are quite good! An egg-y bread as a perfect side to a meat or soup dinner. Enjoy!
