Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare your base:
Use pre-made frozen Yorkshire puddings for an easy option during the busy party season. If you’re feeling fancy, make your own and let them cool slightly before filling.

2. Assemble your fillings:

• Add a small piece of Camembert to the centre of each Yorkshire.
• Place in your mini pigs in blankets.
• Top with half a teaspoon of cranberry sauce (or a drizzle of honey for a sweeter finish).

3. Cook to perfection:
Place the stuffed Yorkshires in your air fryer at 180°C and cook for 8 minutes, until the cheese is gooey and the pigs in blankets are sizzling.

4. Garnish and serve:
Sprinkle with a touch of fresh rosemary before serving for a fragrant, festive finish.

Tips & variations

1. Keep it crisp: To stop your Yorkshires from going soggy, preheat the air fryer for a few minutes before adding them – this helps keep that golden, crunchy texture.
   
2. Mix it up: Try swapping the Camembert for Brie or adding a sprinkle of stuffing crumbs for extra flavour and texture.
   
3. Serve smart: These are best enjoyed straight from the air fryer, but if you’re serving at a party, keep them warm in the oven on low heat until guests arrive.
