Yorkshire Pudding Tins: 4-Hole or 12-Hole?
The tin decides how tall and crisp your Yorkshires are. What to look for.

Yorkshire puddings rise because the batter hits very hot fat. A good tin holds that heat, so your Yorkshires rise tall and crisp.

Which size?
| Tin | Makes | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 4-hole (large) | Big individual puddings | A classic Sunday roast plate |
| 12-hole | Small puddings | Families and crowds; also cupcakes and muffins |
| Single large tin | One "toad in the hole"-style pudding, sliced | Sharing |
Look for
- Heavy-gauge steel, which holds heat and doesn't warp in a very hot oven.
- Deep holes for taller puddings.
- Oven-safe to at least 230°C: Yorkshires need a very hot oven.
Tip
Heat the fat in the tin in the oven for a full 10 minutes before adding batter. It should sizzle as it goes in.
