How to make it
- Whisk the white flour, whole wheat pastry flour and salt together in a bowl to combine evenly.
- Melt the vegan margarine, then whisk it together with the soy milk and very cold water until smooth.
- Gradually pour the wet mixture into the flour, whisking continuously to form a smooth, thin, pourable batter. Cover and rest the batter in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes; this helps it rise.
- Preheat the oven to 220 C (425 F) and divide the vegetable oil between the cups of a 12-hole muffin tin or a Yorkshire pudding tin.
- Place the oiled tin in the hot oven for about 8 to 10 minutes until the oil is smoking hot; this is essential for a good rise.
- Carefully remove the tin and quickly pour the cold batter into each cup, filling them about halfway so the hot oil sizzles around the edges.
- Return to the oven immediately and bake for 20 to 25 minutes without opening the door, until the puddings are puffed, deep golden and crisp. Serve straight away.
