The Best Yorkshire Puddings are a quintessentially British dish, with origins dating back to the 1700s. Originally served as a filling meal for poor families, they are now a popular accompaniment to a roast dinner or a full English breakfast. Perfectly cooked Yorkshire Puddings should be crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 220°C/ gas mark 7.
2.	Add a small amount of oil to each hole of a 12-hole muffin tin and place in the oven for 10 minutes.
3.	Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a bowl, make a well in the center and add the beaten eggs.
4.	Gradually whisk in the milk, making sure there are no lumps.
5.	Once the oil is hot, carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven and divide the batter between the holes, filling them three-quarters full.
6.	Return the tin to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the puddings have risen and are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
