A woman in her 80s died at a house in Bankfield Walk, Braithwaite, on Monday afternoon.
Keighley firefighters were called at about 3.20pm because a pan had been left on the cooker.
They found the woman unconscious inside and gave her first aid. Police were called soon afterwards and it was confirmed the woman had died.
A spokesman said there were not believed to be any suspicious circumstances.
