A staple of traditional British cuisine, Yorkshire Pudding (or 'Yorkies' as they are affectionately known) are a classic side dish that can be served with a variety of mains. Made with basic pantry ingredients like flour, eggs, and milk, these light and fluffy treats are the perfect accompaniment to a Sunday roast dinner. The key to a good Yorkie is allowing it to rise in a hot oven, giving it a crispy outer layer and a soft, pillowy center. Whether you're a fan of meaty mains or prefer vegetarian dishes, a piping hot Yorkshire Pudding is sure to delight your taste buds.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F).
2.	Whisk together the milk, flour, eggs, sage, salt, and pepper until smooth.
3.	Pour the melted fat into a 12-cup muffin tin (or 9x13 inch baking dish), dividing it evenly between the cups.
4.	Heat the muffin tin in the oven for 5-10 minutes, until the fat is sizzling hot.
5.	Carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven and pour the batter evenly into the cups.
6.	Return the muffin tin to the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, until the Yorkies are puffed up and golden brown.
7.	Serve immediately, hot and crispy from the oven!
