Why we love this recipe
- Made in 30 minutes
- Gluten free - Uses only gluten-free ingredients.
- Crispy and rise well - Cornflour Yorkshire puddings rise really well and turn our perfectly crispy.
- Only 4 ingredients - Only a few ingredients are required plus oil for the muffin tin.
- Freeze well - They can be made in advance and frozen. They taste just as good reheated straight from the freezer.
Ingredients
- Cornflour- Cornstarch in U.S. see my cornstarch vs cornflour post for more information regarding the difference. Cornstarch in the US is known as cornflour in the UK.
- Milk - I used whole milk but this will also work well with semi-skimmed milk.
- Eggs - Be sure your eggs are at room temperature.
- Salt & Pepper - to add seasoning and flavor to the gluten free yorkies.
- Vegetable oil for Tin - I prefer to use vegetable oil as it cooks at a higher temperature. An oil or fat that cooks at a high temperature like sunflower oil, fat (such as goose fat), and beef drippings.
Step by Step Instructions
Below is a brief step-by-step process with photos of how to make gluten-free Yorkshire puddings. See therecipe card belowfor more detailed recipe instructions.
Step 1: Preheat Oven to 220°C/425°F/Gas mark 7. Place 1tsp of oil in each muffin hole of your tin and place in the hot oven.
Step 2: Add cornflour and milk together and mix well ensuring there are no lumps.
Step 3: Beat eggs well and add to milk and cornflour mixture then mix until combined. Then add a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Step 4: Transfer the mixture into a jug as this makes it easier to pour into muffin tins. When oil is really hot remove the tin carefully from the oven ensuring you close the oven door once the tin is removed.
Step 5: Pour the gluten-free Yorkshire pudding mixture into the muffin tin half filling each hole and then pop it back in the oven. Try and make this step as fast as you can as you don't want the oil to cool too much.
Step 6: Cook in the oven for approximately 25-30 minutes until puddings are beautifully golden brown. Don't open the oven before they are ready as they will sink.
Notes: See my Tips below for the perfect yorkshires that don't sink and are beautifully risen.
Expert Tips
Follow my no-fail tips for how to make perfect Yorkshire puddings.
- Firstly always ensure that the oil is really hot before adding the mixture. Preferably I always use Vegetable oil as it cooks at a higher temperature than other oils.
- keep the oven door closed while pouring the Yorkshire pudding mixture into muffin tins as you do not want the oven to drop in temperature.
- Also, It should be noted not to refill or top up after the mixture is poured as the Yorkshire pudding mixture will begin to cook as soon as it is added to the hot oil.
- Finally, ensure the oven door remains closed during the cooking process as this will result in the Yorkies sinking if not. Do not be tempted to open the door before they are ready!
Following the above steps will result in your gluten-free Yorkshire Puddings being beautifully risen and puffy.
Serving suggestions
Traditionally Yorkshire puds are a perfect side dish known in the UK and very similar to the American Popovers but instead of individual muffin molds use a 12-hole muffin tin.
- Roast Meat - Homemade Yorkshire Puddings are the perfect accompaniment to a traditional Sunday roast dinner. Pair with my gluten free cauliflower cheese for additional side dishes for a roast beef dinner.
- Gluten free Beef stew - Yorkshire puddings taste amazing with lashings of gravy from the beef stew.
- Sausage and mash - A great side dish to pair with sausage and mashed potatoes.
- Stuffed Yorkshire pudding - If you are feeling adventurous why not try stuffing the cooked Yorkshire puddings with various fillings such as scrambled egg and bacon for a tasty breakfast.
Recipe FAQs
What do you eat a Yorkshire pudding with?
They will go perfectly with any traditional roast dinner, Beef stew, really anything that has lashings of gravy. Alternatively, you can fill the pudding holes with some of your favorite foods such as brie and mushroom, or for the sweeter tooth hot apple with a scoop of ice cream.
Why are my puddings dropping or not rising?
Be sure to have a hot preheated oven and do not open the oven door during the cooking time as this will result in deflated Yorkshire puddings.
Can I make a smaller portion?
Yes of course. Just half the recipe ingredients but follow the same cooking time. This recipe for 6 Yorkshire puds only requires 2 eggs and less milk and cornflour (Cornstarch in the US).
Can they be made dairy free?
Yes just switch out the milk for your preferred dairy-free version to make dairy free Yorkshire pudding.
How do you store them once cooked?
They can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for you to enjoy for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven at a high temperature for 5 minutes to get them nice and crispy.
Are they suitable for freezing?
Yorkshire puddings freeze really well can be frozen in a freezer safe bag/container for up to 3 months. Always reheat in the oven at a high temperature for 5-10 minutes to get them nice and crispy.

Equipment
12 Hole muffin tin
Ingredients
- 120 grams Cornflour Cornstarch in U.S
- 180 ml Milk
- 4 Eggs
- pinch Salt and Pepper
- 12 teaspoons Vegetable oil for Tin
Instructions
Preheat Oven to 220°C/425°F/Gas mark 7
Place 1tsp of oil in each muffin hole of your tin and place in the hot oven.
While the oil is heating up you can make your mixture.
Add cornflour (cornstarch in the US) and milk together and mix well ensuring there are no lumps.
Beat eggs well and add to milk and cornflour (cornstarch in the US) mixture then mix until combined. Then add a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Transfer mixture into a jug as this makes it easier to pour into muffin tins. When oil is really hot remove tin carefully from the oven ensuring you close the oven door once tin is removed.
Pour mixture into muffin tin half filling each hole and then pop back in the oven. Try and make this step as fast as you can as you don't want the oil to cool too much.
Cook in the oven for approximately 25-30 minutes until puddings are beautifully golden brown. Don't open the oven before they are ready as they will sink. See my Tips above for the perfect Yorkshire puddings.
Notes
NOTE: Always check that all your ingredients are gluten free. Importantly if based in America use Cornstarch instead of Cornflour. As UK Cornflour is the same as U.S Cornstarch.
Being that I have not made these Yorkshire puddings using U.S Cornstarch. Any further feedback from anyone who gives it a try is welcome.
STORAGE: They can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for you to enjoy for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven at a high temperature for 5 minutes to get them nice and crispy.
FREEZING: Yorkshire puddings freeze really well can be frozen in a freezer-safe bag/container for up to 3 months. Always reheat in the oven at high temperature for 5-10 minutes to get them nice and crispy.
PORTION SIZE: Alternatively If you don't want to make 12 puddings this recipe is easily halved to make 6 puddings instead. As they freeze really well I always make the 12 and freeze and then have some ready for my next Sunday roast.

Amanda.....in all my years of searching for a nice rise and texture for my yorkies....this is it!!! My daughter comes for dinner once a week and is Gluten intolerant. I made these tonight to check them out. I must say that these were the best Ive ever had! I did switch out the corn flour for tapioca flour.....and used the large muffin pan with 6 spots in it. The timing , of course, changed due to the quantity .....so I added, ( after checking) another 5 min....but should have added a bit more time. Regardless....no one would ever know these were GF !!
I am stuffing these with roast beef, and gravy for her tomorrow........so good!
Thank you so much for this recipe...going to definitely check out your other ones!!!

These were so good! I used tapioca starch and almond milk and they came out light and crispy. It has been hard to find gluten free recipes that both my husband and I enjoy ( he doesn't need to eat gluten free but does as I only make one version of a recipe). Thank you for posting this.

These are amazing. I lived in the UK for a couple of years, pre-gluten free diagnosis, and now that I’m back in the US I have to fend for myself. This recipe is perfect. Thank you!

Hi. Should they be placed in the middle or top of oven?
Reply
Amanda
Hi Peter, Sorry about my delay in replying as I was on holiday. For best results place on the top shelf leaving enough room for them to rise. Although I have cooked them in the middle shelf in the past with good results.

These turned out amazing! I'm from Canada so I used traditional cornstarch. Husband isn't gluten free and said these are as good if not better than when I make them with white flour.
