    My recipe for Yorkshire Pudding (updated). What I like about this recipe is that you use exactly equal volume measurements of eggs, flour, and milk: Ingredients: Eggs (straight from the fridge is fine) All-purpose flour Milk Salt (1/4 tsp per egg) Vegetable oil (1/2 tsp per muffin cup) Instructions: Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius). Prepare the Muffin Pan: Add 1/2 teaspoon of oil to each cup of a muffin pan. Use three cups for each egg in your recipe. Place the pan in the oven to heat the oil. Heat for at least 5 minutes, or until the oil is hot -- hot enough so that it bubbles when you put the batter in the cups.  Make the Batter: In a bowl, mix eggs, flour, and milk in equal quantities to create a batter with a consistency similar to pancake batter. For each egg used, add 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Example: If using 2 eggs, you'll have enough batter for 6 Yorkshire puddings. Fill the Muffin Cups: Carefully remove the hot muffin pan from ...
