Hi all, my son is coeliac so I do a lot of gluten free cooking, but I just can't get Yorkshire's right they are stodgy in the middle and no matter how long they are in the oven they just don't cook through.) I currently have some in the oven atm, I've tried Gordon Ramseys ( normal) recipe today, will let you know how they go. Just wondered if anyone one on here has made them successfully.  I know I can buy them but I prefer to do my own cooking

Oh it's a real pain penguin,I've a wheat allergy,so know the problems with the gf flour,have you tried adding xanthan gum?you can buy it at Tesco's,it helps bind the flour,I make a really good pizza base adding it to flour,butter and mashed potato,much better than shop bought gf pizza ,good luck

Hi, yes I use xanthum gum. I did 125g flour ( glutafin all purpose), 3 eggs, pinch salt, tsp xanthum gum & 150ml milk. It was very thick, but I didn't want to change recipe. They don't taste too bad but are quite thick in the middle.  They also look like I've used brown flour inside

I buy Tesco gf ones but they?re not great,just cover them in gravy 
So do you think if you added more milk they might have been better?oh and how many did that make?,I'm going to give it a try

Hi, it made 12. Actually they were really tasty, my son said the best I've made yet. Next time I'm going to use a little less flour, I'm going to make toad in the hole in the week so will definitely use this recipe. You beat the eggs in a bowl first with a balloon whisk then gradually add sifted flour, salt & xanthum gum, itgoes really thick then slowly mix in the milk.  Hope you like them

Hi, You need to use cornflour instead of gluten free flour.
112g cornflour
5 eggs
200ml milk
1 tsp veg oil
Pinch salt
Whisk for a good 3 minutes with an electric whisk
Hot fat in a 12 holes muffin tray , then 25 minutes in a 230 degree oven
They will work every time

Hi, will give those a try, do they rise well? I have noticed a difference with flours, some better to work with than others.
