The Air Fryer Yorkshire pudding is a 5 ingredient show-stopping golden puffy buns that are made in the air fryer in minutes and risen to a jaw-dropping height and shape.The air fryer gives the pudding a nice crispy exterior while keeping the inside light, airy and fluffy.
2TablespoonsVegetable oil(plus extra for greasing)
½teaspoonof sugaroptional. I like to add sugar for a sweet and savory taste.
Optional: Seasonings such as black pepper, garlic powder, or Italian seasoning to tasteWhile seasoning is optional too and I love how it adds more flavor to the buns.
Instructions
Prepare the Batter:In a mixing bowl, combine the milk, flour, eggs, salt, and, if desired, sugar and additional seasonings.Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.Allow the batter to rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature to enhance its rising properties.
Preheat the Air Fryer:Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Generously grease silicone muffin cups or ramekins with vegetable oil and place them in the air fryer basket to heat for 5 minutes.
Add the Batter: Carefully pour the rested batter into the preheated, greased muffin cups, filling each about halfway.
Air fry Yorkshire Puddings: Cook on air-fry setting for 13 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 °C). Flip after 10 minutes and cook the bottoms for the remaining 3 minutes or or until the puddings are golden brown and have risen impressively.Note: If using "Bake" mode, you can increase the temperature to 400F/200C.
Notes
Tips
Rest the Batter: Allow the batter to rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature to enhance its rising properties.
Preheat the Molds: Heating the greased muffin cups ensures the puddings start cooking immediately upon contact, promoting better puffiness.
Flip: Gently flipping the puddings during cooking. It helps achieve an even, golden crust on all sides.
