Low carb yorkshire puddings

It's roast Beef for us today and it got me wondering if there is a low carb 'Sin free and BG kind' Yorkshire pudding recipe out there and on trawling the net I found this little gem which looks great if the picture is anything to go by!

Carbs per serving: 2.5
Ingredients:
To make six Yorkshire puddings in a muffin tray:

2/3 cup (40g) Soya Flour
3 medium eggs
100ml of whole milk
Pinch of salt
6 tbsp of sunflower oil

Method:
You can use a muffin baking tin or a Yorkshire pudding tin to make these.
Heat the oven to 190C
Pour a small amount of oil (sunflower or vegetable oils are best as they don’t burn or smoke in the oven) in each muffin or pudding tray and heat in the middle of the oven for between 10-15 minutes until really hot. (This is the secret of well-risen Yorkshire Puddings with any flour.)
While the fat is heating the Yorkshire pudding batter can be mixed.
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl using a whisk until fully blended, and leave the mixture to rest until the fat is hot enough for the puddings.
Give the mixture a final whisk just before pouring into the muffin or Yorkshire pudding tray. It will seem watery but will have thickened a bit by the last whisk.
Fill the muffin cups or Yorkshire pudding tray three-quarters deep with the mixture. It is a batter mixture and should be fairly runny.
Bake these in the middle of the oven and don’t open the oven for at least 20 mins after they have gone in or they will fall flat.
They usually take between 25-35 minutes depending on your oven.
If you have a fan oven they will cook more quickly. A lot depends on whether you like them golden or more browned and crisp.
These can be served with boiled vegetables, gravy and a range of meats (eg: roast beef, chicken, lamb etc.) They are high in protein and nutrients. Dixies low carb mash potato is a good addition to the meal.

This recipe can also be used to make batter for things like Toad in the Hole, or can even used as a pancake mixture.




I haven't got the time or ingredients to make these myself today sadly but I'm gonna give these a go next time I have a roast!

Many thanks to the Low carb chef for this recipe and the great blog and recipe can be found here...

even after being full to bursting after that dinner....that still makes me hungry lol

As long as it's not like the Toad in the hole that they used to serve up for school dinners in the 80's eh? All hole and no toad from what I remember and what 'sausage' you did get resembled corpses fingers!

Could you not substitute the soy for coconut or almond flour?

Yes, a bumped post - and I know soya may not be everyone's cup of tea, but if this recipe suits you, and you are having a lovely roast over the weekend you may like to try it out. You can I think substitute the soy with something different almond flour for instance.

Thanks to Paul for originally posting this.

All the best Jan

Looks very nice Jan. I've got a great recipe for low carb toad-in-the-hole:

FINALLY got round to making these today,followed the instructions to the latter using a metal muffin tray and they are excellent!! My family couldn't tell the difference and I made six which worked out at 2 grams of carbs per pudding! Happy days!!
Thanks again Claire87 (Much missed low carber at DCUK) whose blog this recipe was from.
