Ingredients
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups 2% milk
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- - confectioner's sugar
- - applesauce, if desired
How To Make aebleskiver
-
Step 1Whisk the egg yolks and sugar until foamy. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the flour mixture and milk to the egg yolks and whisk until smooth.
-
Step 2Beat the egg whites in a large bowl with the electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. When you lift the beaters, the whites will make peaks that fold back slightly.
-
Step 3Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until smooth. Heat an aebleskiver pan over medium heat until drops of water sizzle. Place about 1/4 tsp. butter in each cup. Add about 1/4 cup batter to each cup - about 3/4 full. Cook 1 to 2 minutes or until bottom half is browned. Use a skewer to slowly turn balls to cook the other sides. Balls are done when a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
-
Step 4Turn out pancake balls onto plate and keep warm in a slow oven. Dust with confectioner's sugar and serve with applesauce.
