Yorkshire Puddings with Ice Cream & Golden Syrup

Yorkshire Pudding

Yorkshire Pudding with Ice Cream & Golden Syrup

Since 2008 the first Sunday of every February has been designated British Yorkshire Pudding Day and this year falls on 3 February. I have to admit that I mainly make Yorkshire Pudding batter for my Toad in the Hole recipe and tend to chicken out of making actual Yorkshire Puddings. So when Mermaid sent me their 4 Cup Yorkshire Pudding Tray I decided that I wanted to face my culinary fears and do it anyway! I read up on the subject and came up with the following recipe from my research. Being a fan of waffles and ice cream I decided Yorkshire Pudding with Ice Cream & Golden Syrup and jolly delicious it was too!

The Mermaid 4 Hole Yorkshire Pudding tray is made of tough hard anodised aluminium and therefore has great heat distribution properties which is vital for this job! It won’t peel, flake or blister and can be heated on the hob and oven. I’ve said it before, these tins retain their heat long after coming out of the oven unlike flimsy inferior ones so don’t be tempted to pick up with your fingers too soon!

I am entering my puddings into this month’s Credit Crunch Munch which is run by myself and Helen at Fuss Free Flavours and is being hosted my me this month, as they are a really economic and delicious dessert.

I am also entering my Yorkshire Pudding with Ice Cream & Golden Syrup into the “Tea Time Treats” challenge which is run by Karen at Lavender and Lovage and Kate at What Kate Baked who is hosting this month with the theme of puddings!

Fill pudding holes with batter and bake immediately.

My 2nd batch worked much better as I only filled holes 3/4 full so fluffed up a lot higher, remember less is more!

Once out of oven serve with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream and lashings of golden syrup.

    I was quite horrified the other day when my daughter squirted chocolate sauce on her left over yorkshire pudding and tucked in ! My mother told me that lots of people like them with sweet things, not sure I could try it after only ever knowing yorkshire puddings to come with gravy 😀

    It is all about hot puddings this weekend to keep us warm in this cold and wild weather! Brrrrrr I don’t feel so guilty making hot puddings when I know we need the energy to keep us warm and on the move!

      Thanks Helen, I’ve always admired Gordon Ramsay’s Yorkshires and remembered it’s all about heat and lard or dripping, so each batch just gets better now:-)

      It was my first time in so many years I can’t remember making Yorkshires and as I didn’t want to do a full roast in the middle of the week I decided pudding was the way to go! I’m pleased I did as they were wolfed down by the family so will freeze some for another time and do again:-)

    What a great idea Camilla! So, did they end up tasting like waffles then? Love the taste of waffles. The puddings look to have come out really well – a great tin to use!
