Air Fryer Yorkshire Pudding: The Perfect Golden Puff, Made Easier
Love Yorkshire pudding but not the fuss of heating a smoky oven or waiting for the perfect rise? Say hello to your new favorite hack: Air Fryer Yorkshire Pudding. It’s everything you love about the classic British side—light, fluffy, crispy on the outside, soft in the middle—made quicker, easier, and more energy-efficient.
Whether you’re serving it with roast beef, holiday dinners, or just want an impressive side for your Sunday meal, the air fryer makes these golden beauties nearly foolproof.
What Is Yorkshire Pudding?
Despite the name, Yorkshire pudding isn’t sweet. It’s a traditional British savory side dish made from a simple batter of eggs, flour, and milk—similar to popovers or Dutch baby pancakes. The magic happens when that batter hits hot fat (usually beef drippings), puffing up into a golden, crispy-edged delight with a soft, hollow center.
Traditionally baked in the oven, Yorkshire pudding gets a modern upgrade in this air fryer version, allowing for more consistent results in less time.
Why Make Yorkshire Pudding in the Air Fryer?
✅ Faster cook time
✅ No need to heat the whole oven
✅ More consistent rise and texture
✅ Crispy outside, fluffy inside—every time
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Beef drippings, lard, or vegetable oil (for greasing the pans)
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, and salt until smooth.
- Let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes (this helps with the rise).
- Preheat the Air Fryer & Muffin Tin
- Place a small amount (about 1/2 tsp) of fat into each well of a metal muffin tin or silicone cups that fit your air fryer basket.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) with the tin inside, for about 5 minutes, until the fat is sizzling hot.
- Add the Batter
- Carefully remove the hot tin and quickly pour the batter into each well, filling them about 1/3 full.
- Air Fry
- Return the tin to the air fryer and cook at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes, or until the puddings are puffed and deep golden brown.
- Avoid opening the basket during cooking or the puddings may deflate.
