How to make Yorkshire Pudding Recipe:

Step 3: Use a whisk to beat thoroughly.

Step 4: In a small bowl, beat the eggs until frothy.

Step 5: Add the eggs to the batter and beat to combine.

Step 6: Cover the batter with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

Step 7: When ready to bake, generously butter a 12-cup muffin tin.

Step 8: Remove batter from the refrigerator, after at least 5 hours or overnight. Then, preheat the oven to 400° F/ 205° C.

Step 9: Beat the batter until small bubbles rise to the surface.

Step 10: Place the buttered muffin tin into the oven for 1-2 minutes until the butter is sizzling and slightly browned.

Step 11: Remove the muffin tin from the oven and quickly pour the batter into the muffin cups. Make sure to distribute the batter evenly between the 12 cups.

Step 12: Return the muffin tin to the oven as quickly as possible. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

If the pudding is not brown enough on the top, raise the muffin tin to the top shelf of the oven and bake for some minutes more until you get a brown color on the edges.
