What is Yorkshire Pudding?

Similar to American popovers, British Yorkshire pudding is a savory, buttery, baked pudding made with eggs, milk, flour, and fat.

  • Yorkshire puddings puff up as they bake, giving each one a unique appearance while remaining soft in the center.
  • These are perfect for sopping up gravy and sauces and dunking into soups and stews.
  • They pair perfectly with pot roast or stew and Yorkshire pudding is the perfect way to soak savory gravy.

Ingredients for Yorkshire Pudding

Batter – Use large eggs for the biggest rise in baking and full-fat milk and be sure to whisk the flour before measuring it.

Did you know?

There’s a proper way to measure flour! Always whisk the flour right in its container before scooping it out. Flour settles as it’s stored and scooping it without whisking it first, results in heavier measurements. Aerating the flour before measuring it ensures accurate amounts for recipes.

Fat – Beef drippings, bacon grease, duck fat, lard, butter, or ghee will add the most flavor to Yorkshire pudding if you have it. Otherwise, vegetable oil will work (turning these into popovers).

Variations

Savory – Add your favorite seasoning blend in Step 2, if desired. We like dried rosemary, thyme, or whatever blend suits the menu.

Sweet – Sweet yorkies can be made with lemon or orange zest, a shake of cinnamon, or even pumpkin pie spice for a festive breakfast or brunch Yorkshire pudding.

  • Add the eggs to a blender and blend for 2 minutes.

  • Add milk, flour, and salt to the blender and blend for 30 seconds more. Allow the batter to rest in the fridge while preheating the oven to 425°F.

  • Divide the beef drippings or oil over 8 wells of a muffin pan, approximately 1 teaspoon each. Place the muffin pan in the oven for at least 5 minutes to heat.

  • Once hot, pour the batter into the muffin wells until they are ¾ full.

  • Bake at 425°F for 20 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 18 to 23 minutes or until golden and puffed up.

  • Remove from the oven and run a butter knife along the edges of the Yorkshire puddings to remove from the pan.

  • The batter will rise better if it has time to rest overnight. The batter is expected to be thin.
  • It is important to preheat the muffin tin and the fat for the best rise.
  • The beef drippings should be the fat from cooking beef (skim off any fat for the Yorkshire pudding, save the juices for gravy).
  • If you don’t have drippings, use bacon fat, lard, or vegetable oil.
  • A small sprinkle of fresh thyme or rosemary is a lovely addition to this Yorkshire pudding recipe.
  • Freeze cooled Yorkshire puddings in a zippered bag for up to 3 months.
