Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 teaspoons beef drippings or vegetable oil
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a muffin tin inside to heat up.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk flour and salt. In a separate bowl, beat eggs until frothy, then slowly whisk in milk.
3. Combine wet and dry ingredients into a smooth batter. Let it rest for 30–60 minutes at room temperature.
4. Once the oven is ready, carefully remove the muffin tin and add 1 teaspoon of fat to each cup. Return tin to oven until fat is smoking hot (about 5 minutes).
5. Quickly pour batter into each cup, filling halfway.
6. Bake for 20–25 minutes without opening the oven. They should be puffed and golden brown.
7. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
Always let the batter rest — this step is key for height and texture.
Use room-temperature milk and eggs for an even rise.
Don’t open the oven while baking, or they’ll collapse!
