Yorkshire Popovers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place a popover or large muffin pan in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are foamy. Whisk in the milk. Add the flour, salt and pepper and beat just until the batter is smooth.
• Pour the beef drippings in the cups of the hot pan, then pour in the batter filling the cups halfway and bake until the popovers are puffy and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place a popover or large muffin pan in the preheated oven for 10 minutes to heat it up. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until foamy and light. Whisk in the milk until combined. Add the flour, salt and pepper, beat just until the batter is smooth. Pour the beef drippings in the bottom of the hot pan. Then pour in the batter and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue baking for 15 to 20 minutes more until puffy and brown. Serve immediately, it deflates rapidly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Generously grease aluminum popover pans or Pyrex custard cups with softened butter. You'll need enough pans to make 12 popovers. Place the pans in the oven for exactly 2 minutes to preheat. Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, salt, eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth. The batter will be thin. Fill the popover pans less than half full and bake for exactly 30 minutes. Do not peek.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9. Pour a little oil into the holes of a deep 12-hole muffin tin or 12 popover tins, making sure the oil coats the bases in a thin layer. Slide into the oven for 10 mins to heat the oil.
• Whisk the flour and eggs together in a bowl with a pinch of salt until you have a smooth, thick paste. Slowly pour in the milk, whisking continuously until you have a thin batter that's the consistency of double cream.
• Carefully remove the hot tin from the oven and quickly pour in the batter, filling the tins half full. The batter should sizzle immediately as it hits the oil. Bake for 10 mins, then reduce the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and bake for 10-15 mins more until the popovers are golden, crisp and well-risen. Serve straightaway.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to hot (425F/220C/Gas 7)
• Put a teaspoonful of oil or dripping in each of several muffin tins or, to be truly Yorkshire, a couple of tablespoonsful in a larger roasting tin and place in the oven until the fat is really hot and beginning to smoke. Meanwhile combine the rest of the ingredients and beat to form a batter of the consistency of double cream.
• If you wish you can add mixed dried herbs to add a savoury flavour.
• When the fat is smoking take the tin out of the oven and place it over a low light so that it doesn't cool as you add the batter.
• Pour in the batter If you're using muffin tins don't over fill.
• Remember that the puddings will rise and puff up.
• Put the tin back into the top of the oven as soon as possible and leave for about 20-25 minutes by which time they will be puffed up and crisp.
• When my grandmother used to make Yorkshire pudding to go with the Sunday roast we would eat it in the true Yorkshire way.
• That is, as a first course with just a savoury gravy poured over it. After all, the idea of Yorkshire pudding is to fill you up so that you don't want so much of the more expensive meat! If there was any of the pudding left over as a treat we kids would have it as a desert with Golden Syrup poured over it. Servings: 4 Ian Rice (Yorkshireman)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, beat eggs with milk. Stir in flour. Set aside.
• Divide butter evenly into the twelve cups of a muffin tin, about 1/2 teaspoon per cup. Place tin in oven to melt butter, 2 to 5 minutes. Remove tin from oven, and distribute batter evenly among buttery cups.
• Bake in preheated oven 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and bake 25 minutes more or until puffed and golden.

Steps:

• Grease a 6-tin muffin pan with butter and cooking spray.
• Whisk eggs, milk, flour, salt, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl until smooth. Pour batter into each muffin tin, filling to about 3/4 of the way up the sides. Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of grated Cheddar cheese atop each popover.
• Place pan in a cold oven. Heat to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) and bake until puffed and well-browned, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Drizzle a teaspoon or so of melted butter in each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan or a popover tin and put it in oven while you make batter.
• Beat together the eggs, milk, 1 tablespoon butter, sugar and salt. Beat in the flour a little bit at a time and add thyme if using; mixture should be smooth.
• Carefully remove muffin tin from oven and fill each cup about halfway. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for 15 minutes more, or until popovers are puffed and browned. Do not check popovers until they have baked for a total of 30 minutes. Remove from pan immediately and serve hot.
