You’re going to love Yorkshire pudding. It’s easy to make with gluten free ingredients so everyone at your table can enjoy it!
Gluten free Yorkshire pudding smothered in gravy served along side a wonderful roast is the quintessential British dinner.
While the name “pudding” conjures up images of a sweet, creamy dessert to Americans, puddings in British cuisine can refer to sausages, bread-like creations, or desserts.
This recipe is from my mother-in-law who knew how to make an amazing Yorkshire. This is the real thing.
Even though I swap in gluten free flour, this gluten free Yorkshire pudding rocks.
You can serve your Yorkshires with an eye round roast beef, but if you want to really make your taste buds sing go with the most tender tasty roast: Châteaubriand and mushroom gravy.

Ingredients
Yorkshire pudding is a simple batter of flour, eggs, milk and salt that is typically cooked in hot beef fat to create a savory bread.

You’ll most likely cook your roast at 350℉. My mother-in-law would make her roast in a large pyrex baking dish.
She’d take her finished roast out, turn her oven up to 425 ℉, put the pan with the drippings back into the oven until they were super hot, and then pour her batter right over the drippings in the same roasting pan and bake her Yorkshire for 35-40 minutes.
Or she told me that I could divide the drippings into two round baking pans, get the drippings hot, pour in my batter, and bake for about 25 minutes.
But this year, I decided to make individual Yorkshire puddings using a muffin pan. These were ready to enjoy in just 20 minutes. What fun they are! Everyone gets their own and can pour gravy right into the hollow middle.
Here’s the easy method.
Reserve 1/4 cup of the drippings from your roast and pour 2 tablespoons of drippings into each of two 8 inch round baking pans. (If you don’t have enough drippings, you may add oil). If you’re making individual Yorkshires in a muffin tin, add 1 teaspoon of drippings to each muffin hole.
Then place the pan(s) in the oven for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, beat eggs on a low speed of your electric mixer for 1/2 of a minute. Add milk; beat for another 15 seconds. Then add gf flour and salt and beat for 2 minutes more until smooth.
Carefully take the pan(s) out of the oven. Make sure the drippings are super HOT before you put the room temperature batter into the pans. You should hear a sizzle when the batter hits the drippings. Working quickly, be sure to get your pan(s) back into the oven right away. The hot fat and hot oven are the key to getting your batter to rise.
Bake in your 425 ℉ oven about 20 minutes for the muffin pan or about 25 minutes for the round baking pans.
Serve with your roast and top with mushroom gravy.
Pro tips and recipe notes
-
- Beef drippings from you roast beef make Yorkshire pudding authentic. I have also used tallow from my homemade bone broth. If you don’t have enough drippings, you can use oil. I like extra-virgin olive oil or avocado oil.
- You should hear a sizzle when your batter hits the hot drippings. Working quickly, be sure to get your pan(s) back into the oven right away. The hot fat and hot oven are the key to getting the iconic rise of your puddings.
- I prepare my batter in a mixing bowl with a pourable spout which makes it easier to pour. It’s less messy. Fill each muffin hole or baking pan 3/4 of the way full.
- What you’ll love about the individual hollow Yorkshire puddings, is that you can pour your gravy right inside. It’s such fun. Everyone gets their own.
- One more thing. Don’t open the door to your oven until baking is complete. You don’t want your Yorkshires to collapse.

Is it possible to use non-dairy milk in the Yorkshire,Pudding recipe?
Barbara says
Hi Paula, I haven’t used non-dairy milk in this recipe, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. You should be fine with non-dairy. Enjoy! 🙂
