Air fryer Yorkshire puddings are a delicious twist on the traditional British dish. Yorkshire puddings are typically baked in the oven, but using an air fryer can yield excellent results as well. Here’s a recipe to make air fryer Yorkshire puddings:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Vegetable oil or cooking spray (for greasing)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for a few minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well blended.
- Gradually add the egg and milk mixture to the flour mixture, whisking constantly to avoid any lumps. Continue whisking until you have a smooth batter.
- Let the batter rest for about 15 minutes at room temperature. This allows the flour to absorb the liquid and results in better puffing.
- Once the batter has rested, lightly grease the cups of your air fryer with vegetable oil or cooking spray.
- Carefully pour the batter into each cup, filling them about halfway. You can use a ladle or a measuring cup with a spout for easier pouring.
- Place the filled cups into the preheated air fryer basket, making sure they are spaced apart to allow for proper airflow.
- Cook the Yorkshire puddings in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed up and golden brown.
- Avoid opening the air fryer too frequently during cooking, as this can cause the puddings to deflate.
- Once the Yorkshire puddings are done, remove them from the air fryer and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- Serve the Yorkshire puddings immediately as a side dish for roast beef or any other meat of your choice. They pair well with gravy and can also be enjoyed on their own.
Note: Cooking times may vary depending on the size and model of your air fryer, so keep an eye on the puddings as they cook to avoid overcooking or burning.
