Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup eggs (approximately 4 large eggs)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Fat
- 1/4 cup beef drippings or oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure the beef drippings and Yorkshire puddings cook at the right high temperature for puffiness and crispiness.
- Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, eggs, heavy cream, baking powder, and salt until the batter is smooth and fully combined. This creates the base of your keto-friendly Yorkshire pudding.
- Let the batter rest: Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes. This resting period helps the ingredients meld and improves the texture of the final pudding.
- Heat the fat: Add the beef drippings or oil to a muffin tin, then place it in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes until the fat is hot and sizzling—this is key for achieving a crisp bottom crust.
- Fill the muffin tin: Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven and pour the batter into each cup, filling them halfway to allow room for rising.
- Bake: Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake the puddings for 20-25 minutes, or until they are puffed up and golden brown on top.
Notes
- Use beef drippings for authentic flavor, but vegetable oil can be substituted for a milder taste.
- Do not open the oven door during baking to prevent the puddings from collapsing.
- The resting step is essential for a light, airy texture.
- Serve immediately after baking for the best puff and texture.
- This recipe makes 12 servings suitable for a large family meal or gathering.
