Transform your dinner table with this guilt-free version of a classic British favorite!
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
Place a 12-cup muffin tin in the oven to heat up while you prepare the batter. This is essential for achieving a good rise.
In a medium mixing bowl, sift the flour and salt together.
In a separate bowl or jug, whisk the eggs, skimmed milk, and cold water together until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, whisking continuously to form a smooth batter free from lumps.
Transfer the batter to a jug for easy pouring, and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Once the oven and muffin tin are hot, carefully remove the tin and add 1-2 drops of vegetable oil (or a quick spritz of non-stick cooking spray) into each cup. Be cautious as the tin will be very hot.
Quickly pour the batter evenly into the 12 cups, filling each about halfway.
Return the tin to the oven immediately and cook for 20-25 minutes without opening the oven door. The puddings should puff up and turn golden brown.
Once baked, remove the puddings from the oven and serve immediately. Pair them with a Sunday roast or your favorite gravy for a delicious low-fat side.
