Aebleskiver - Apple "Pancakes"





Lisa's Aebleskive Pan and finished "product" in Royal Copenhagen China!


My Father (a Dane) introduced my daughters (Louise and Lisa) to Aebleskiver (apple pancakes) when they were very little and Lisa now makes them for her family (see Photo!). This recipe is from Nordic Ware and when I get home (we are travelling for 6 months) I will update this with my Father's/Mother's version of it....


Ingredients

2 eggs separated

2 tbsp. vegetable oil

1 1/2 tsp. sugar

1 cup flour

1/2 tsp. tsp. baking powder

1 cup milk (or buttermilk in some recipes)

1/4 tsp. salt.




In medium bowl beat egg yolks until light in color, stir in sugar. Stir together remaining dry ingredients; add to egg mixture. Alternately with milk mix in oil, in a separate bowl beat egg whites until stiff; fold into batter. Bake aebleskiver in the proper pan and turn them with a knitting needle or wooden spoon. Yields about 28.



Aebleskiver may be filled with 1 small slice of fresh apple, a small cube of cheese or 1 tsp. of jam.
