What Is Yorkshire Pudding?
Made from eggs, flour, and milk, Yorkshire pudding is one of the easiest and most delicious eats on the planet. A British creation, these puddings are very similar to American popovers, and they’re amazing. Yorkshire puddings bake up tall and puffy and have a divot in the middle that’s perfect for holding scrumptious beef gravy.
What Is Yorkshire Pudding Pie?
Well, I’m not really sure what to call this creation. It’s not quite a pot pie because it has no top crust, but at the same time, it sure is pie-like! Imagine a giant Yorkshire pudding with leftover roast beef, potatoes, carrots, peas, and whatnot smothered in gravy and baked inside. There you have it, a Yorkshire pudding pie.
Ingredients
- Cooking oil – Vegetable, canola, or peanut oil.
- Milk
- All-purpose flour
- Eggs
- Salt and pepper
- Leftover roast beef – Trimmed of excess fat or gristle.
- Potato – Boiled potatoes, diced.
- Veggies – Carrots, peas, turnip, rutabaga, whatever you have leftover from your roast beef dinner.
- Leftover roast beef gravy
How To Make Leftover Roast Beef Yorkshire Pudding Pie
- Preheat your oven to 425-F.
- Whisk the milk, flour, eggs, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until it is lump-free. Set aside.
- Combine the leftover roast beef, diced potatoes, veggies, and 1 cup of the leftover roast beef gravy in a large bowl until well mixed.
- When the oven has reached 425-F, add the cooking oil to a 9×9-inch baking dish and set the baking dish on a baking sheet with raised sides. Heat the oil in the baking dish in the oven for about 10 minutes or until very hot but not smoking.
- Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven and pour the batter into the baking dish.
- Spoon the leftover roast beef and gravy mixture into the center of the batter. The beef will displace the batter – that’s OK.
- Bake the Yorkshire pudding pie at 425-F for about 30 minutes or until the Yorkshire pudding is puffed and golden brown around the edges and the filling in the center is bubbling and hot.
- Serve and enjoy with the rest of the gravy spooned over the top.
Chef Jenn’s Tips
- If you don’t want to mix the batter by hand, you can add the milk, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper to a blender and pulse it until it is well mixed.
- If your gravy needs a bit of help in the flavor department, add a splash of Worcestershire sauce, a pinch of garlic powder, onion powder, or a teaspoon or two of red wine to the gravy.
- You can also use a packet of gravy – you’ll need enough for about 1 1/2 cups of gravy.
- If you don’t have leftover veggies, you can use mixed frozen veggies. You’ll need about 2 cups. Thaw them first in the microwave.
- Bake your Yorkshire pudding pie on a baking sheet in case it spills over a bit. It will make a smoky mess in your oven if it spills without a baking sheet to catch the oil.

Make It A Meal
Leftover Roast Beef Yorkshire Pie is a complete meal all in one dish. This 1-dish dinner has veggies and everything right in the dish. I like to serve this meal with a salad on the side, or sometimes I’ll serve it with some cut-up veggies and a great dip. Don’t forget about dessert! Save some room for a Banana Chocolate Chip Mug Cake.
Storage
Yorkshire pudding is never as good as it is fresh out of the oven. If you do have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
