Perfect Aebleskiver Ebelskiver

I usually make these for breakfast for new years morning or whenever we return from traveling home for Christmas and we have our own kinda of new year/ Christmas morning. We love these and I’ve made a bisquick/pancake mix for years but thought I’d try one from scratch. These are 1000% the best we’ve ever had. We loved them dipped in a tiny bit of melted butter and sprinkled with cinnamon/ sugar. We serve them with chunky home canned peach syrup and fill them with apple pie filling if I have it. Dusted with powdered sugar and dipped in buttermilk frosting is a must. So SO good!

  • 2 large eggs, whites and yolks separated
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (242g)
  • 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 Tablespoons salted butter, melted + extra for the pan
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  • In a separate, large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and sugar.  Stir well, then add the egg yolks, melted butter and buttermilk and mix just until combined.
  • Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter.  Batter will be fairly thick.   
  • Heat your aebleskiver pan over medium heat until hot.  Brush each cup with a little melted butter using a pastry brush, then fill each cup with about 2 tablespoons of batter until almost full.  
  • As soon as the aebleskivers begin to bubble around the edges, use a wooden skewer, chopstick, knitting needle, or fork to flip them over half way, letting the batter slide around to fill in the bottom of the cup. 
  • Continue cooking, turning the aebleskiver again to let the batter fill in the remainder of the sphere and continuing to turn until golden brown all the way around and cooked through.
    • Transfer to a serving plate and dust with powdered sugar, then serve with jam (traditional), honey, cinnamon honey (my favorite!), or even just syrup.
