How many Yorkshire puddings would you make?

[ChristmasSeacow]

Doing roast beef etc for 5 adults and 2 kids. I feel that a round dozen probably won’t be enough as DS is a big fan. No adult would want fewer than 2, surely?!

How many would you do for that number of people? I use a muffin tin.

About 50! Never too many.

I do 4 for me and DD. Three for her, one for me.

Little heathen does not like roast potatoes so I get all of those.

24 without a doubt though. You'll be very popular!

Make sure you do enough gravy - the more Yorkshire's the more gravy.

I would make about 250 as they will be eaten

Are you insane? Make it an even 500. Food of the gods

If there is the chance to eat more than 2 at Sunday dinner I always do, but I'm not a big roast potato fan so Yorkshires are my carb of choice there!

I am cooking roast beef for 5 adults and 2 children today and will be making 24 yorkshires (thats all I have space in the oven for) and expect they will all be eaten, but if not, I shall eat the rest for my lunch tomorrow!

Right, I made mix for 24 but will probably make them a bit bigger so I’ll make 18-20. If there are any leftover DS will want them tomorrow!

It’s a special family birthday lunch so I need to make sure there’s no scope for disappointment.

I am amused to see feelings running very high though . 250

Snap, Rabbits!

One each, why more, empty calories and not very nice imho

stucknoue won't want one op, so only do 249

Rockbird 😂

Perhaps you should have titled your thread "How many Yorkshire Puddings would be too many?", ChristmasSeacow.

36

Plus dont use a muffin tin -they are too deep- get a proper tin or make it the yorkshire way- flat in the roasting tin,

Make sure there are enough left over to have with jam - definitely make 24

Glad you’ve gone with more than 2 per person.
Family of 5 although ds doesn’t like them.
We make 12 for the 4 of us - big fluffy Yorkshire’s are just the best.

I have proper round Yorkshire pudding tins,belonged to my gran.
We have 2 /3 each with gravey before the rest of the meal.

I've never understood the concept of left ove Yorkshire pudding!

When Aunt Bessie did them in 16 packs, I'd do the whole thing. Delicious cold, either with a bit of salt or a smear of golden syrup.

I don't like them but when catering I would plan 2-3 per person I didn't know to be a non-eater.

I made the best Yorkshire pudding tonight but only 6 for the two boys as I’m being good

It would seem that my family are apparently extremely hard done by - I only ever really do two each, and they're not huge. Evidently I need to up my pudding game!
