Best Yorkshire Pudding With Bacon And Sage Recipes

YORKSHIRE PUDDING WITH BACON AND SAGE

Steps:

• Place rack in center of oven and preheat to 450°F. Sauté bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Transfer drippings to glass measuring cup. If needed, add enough melted butter to measure 1/4 cup total. Pour drippings into 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Place dish in hot oven to heat drippings 10 minutes.
• Whisk flour, 2 tablespoons sage, and salt in medium bowl to blend. Whisk milk and eggs to blend in large bowl; add flour mixture and whisk until batter is smooth. Whisk in 2/3 of bacon. Remove hot baking dish from oven. Using oven mitts or pot holders to protect hands, tilt dish to distribute drippings evenly. Pour batter into pan. Bake 15 minutes; reduce oven temperature to 350°F and continue to bake until golden brown and puffed, about 12 minutes longer (do not open oven door while baking).
• Remove pudding from oven. Crumble remaining bacon over pudding, sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sage, and serve.

SAGE & ONION YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Cut the onions into thin wedges, keeping the root intact so they hold together, to make about 12-16 thin wedges.
• Whisk the eggs and flour in a large bowl to make a smooth paste, then whisk in the milk to make a smooth batter. Season, then stir in the sage. Leave to rest for 10 mins at room temperature. Will keep chilled for up to 24 hrs (bring up to room temperature before using). Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8.
• Pour a drizzle of oil evenly into 10 holes of a 12-hole muffin tin, or in all of two four-hole Yorkshire pudding tins to coat the bases. Add a wedge of onion to each hole and put in the oven for 10 mins to heat up.
• Transfer the batter to a jug, carefully remove the tins from the oven and pour the batter over the onions, dividing it evenly between the holes. The batter should sizzle as soon as it hits the oil. Put back in the oven and turn the temperature down to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Cook for 15 mins until golden and risen. Don't open the door until the time is up, or they may sink.
