Yorkshire puddings?!


Question: can you fill supermarket yorkshire puddings (chilled, not frozen, they look like ready to eat, instructions say bake 3 mins) with something (mushrooms and cheese for example) and bake them? or should they be baked on their own? will they still be crispy? i've never tried them before.
please don't post recipes like with beef and gravy as i'm vegetarian. and would like to make them with a filling not as a side. thanks!

They are ready to eat, they are pre-cooked, and just need warming, therefore you can put what you like in them, assuming what you're putting in doesn't need cooking.

yep of course

whats yorkshire pudding?

Sorry to disappoint you but yorkshire pudding are not a dessert, they are a bread not a puff pastry. I do remember long ago at our Sunday dinner when a guest mistook them for a dessert and sprinkled them with sugar but I do believe that you think they have the same taste and texture as a puff pastry and this is not the case. Yorkshires are made to be served with Roast beef and potatoes and smothered in gravy. You sure miss out on something great by being a vegetarian but to each his own.

Actually u can make them a desert by adding cream and hunny! Altho i do agree... they are much nicer with beef gravy potatoe and veg! mmmmmmm =]

Hello, I think this may just be an experimental sort of dish. I think that it would work however my only concern would be that they would not rise as well,they may collapse on themselves. Yorkshire Puddings (tradditional) are fluffy like popovers they puff up at baking time and I don't know if the filling process would leave them flat?? You could however allow them to bake and cool them slice open fill and just flash them in the oven...that may work well. Like I said experiment and see what happens you really could not screw them up too badly!!! ( I have never tried the ones in the supermarket I have only made my own batter)

When fresh Yorkshire puddings are made, the beef drippings from the roast beef are used to put in the pudding pans before the pudding is poured in. You will need to look on the ingredients of the frozen ones to make sure that an animal product was not used during the baking process.

Yorkshire puddings are not a dessert, they are a bread product that rises from the sudden expansion of air when the pudding is poured into the hot pudding pan and then baked at high heat.

Yes, you can fill them with mushrooms, sauteed veg, tofu, etc. though that was not their original purpose. Good for you for thinking outside the box!!
