Time 30m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 egg whites
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 egg yolks
4 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups buttermilk
1 cup vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • In a clean glass or metal bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they can hold a stiff peak. Set aside.
  • Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, sugar, egg yolks, melted butter and buttermilk at one time and beat until smooth. Gently fold in the egg whites last.
  • Put about 1tablespoon of vegetable oil in the bottom of each aebleskiver pan cup and heat until hot. Pour in about 2 tablespoons of the batter into each cup. As soon as they get bubbly around the edge, turn them quickly (Danish cooks use a long knitting needle, but a fork will work). Continue cooking, turning the ball to keep it from burning.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 apples (peeled, cored, quartered, and chopped into half-inch pieces)
4 teaspoons butter (divided)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 eggs
1 tablespoon sugar
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
Optional: 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a medium-size pan, lightly sauté apple pieces in 2 tablespoons of butter until softened but still firm. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
  • Separate the egg whites from yolks and beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  • In a different bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar together until creamy. Set aside.
  • In a medium-size bowl, sift together flour and baking powder. Set aside.
  • Gradually stir in half-cups of flour at a time, alternating with half-cups of buttermilk, into the egg mixture. Mix well until all buttermilk and flour are combined into the eggs.
  • Gently fold beaten egg whites into batter.
  • Heat up aebleskiver pan over high heat. Once very hot, reduce the heat to medium.
  • Place 1/8 teaspoon of butter into each well to grease, using a pastry brush to coat the round surface entirely.
  • Spoon about 1 teaspoon of batter into each well, filling half-way, and place an apple chunk on the batter. Immediately spoon enough additional batter over the apples to cover and fill well to the top.
  • Allow the pancake to cook until the sides begin to brown and pull away from the sides of the wells.
  • Lightly run a knife or, in the traditional fashion, a knitting needle around the edge of each ball to loosen and then flip over to cook through for about 2 minutes.
  • Remove the aebleskiver to a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar, if using, to serve.
  • Enjoy!

BLUEBERRY-RICOTTA STUFFED EBELSKIVERS



Blueberry-Ricotta Stuffed Ebelskivers image

Ebelskivers -- fluffy Danish-style stuffed pancakes -- are even more fun when packed with blueberries and a lemony ricotta filling.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 45m

Yield 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/3 cup ricotta
1 tablespoon honey, plus more for serving
Zest from 1/2 lemon
28 small or 14 large blueberries
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup sour cream
2 large eggs, separated
Zest from 1/2 lemon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Confectioners' sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • For the filling: Mix together the ricotta, honey and lemon zest in a small bowl until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the pancakes: Whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk together the milk, sour cream, egg yolks and lemon zest in another medium bowl. Whisk the yolk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (the batter will be lumpy). Allow the batter to rest while you whip the egg whites.
  • Beat the egg whites in a separate medium bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, about 1 minute. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
  • Heat an ebelskiver pan over medium heat for 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and brush 4 of the wells generously with melted butter so there is some butter pooling at the bottom of each (the butter should barely sizzle when it hits the pan). Fill each buttered well with about 1 tablespoon batter. Repeat with the butter and batter in the remaining 4 wells. (You are working in batches to prevent the butter from burning.) Allow the batter to cook slightly around the edges, about 30 seconds.
  • Carefully spoon about 1 teaspoon of the ricotta filling into the center of each ebelskiver, then press 2 blueberries (or just 1 if large) into the center. Spoon about 1 tablespoon additional batter on top of the blueberries so the wells are very full. Cook until the bottom crusts are golden brown, an additional 2 1/2 minutes.
  • Push a wooden skewer through the raw batter and into the bottom crust of each ebelskiver to turn it slowly. Allow the raw batter to flow back into the well and create a new bottom crust. (If an ebelskiver does not slide up easily or hold its shape, slide it back to its original position and give it more time to cook and set.) Cook until the new undersides are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Check all sides of the ebelskivers: If there are pale spots on some, turn them pale-side down so they brown against the bottom of the pan for a few seconds. When they are done, the ebelskivers should be deep golden brown all over and a skewer inserted deep into the pancakes, avoiding the filling, should come out clean. If you find that some are cooking much more quickly than others, rotate the pan occasionally to even out the heat. Remove the ebelskivers from the pan.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining melted butter, batter, filling and blueberries to make 6 more ebelskivers. By the second batch, the pan will be significantly hotter, so you may need to reduce the heat or remove the pan from the heat occasionally to ensure even cooking. Dust the ebelskivers with confectioners' sugar and serve warm drizzled with honey.

AEBLESKIVER (DANISH PANCAKES)



Aebleskiver (Danish Pancakes) image

As a young girl, I constantly craved Saturdays and Sundays when my mother would prepare these small delicious pancakes. Now as a college student, I still look forward to Christmas time when our family is together and my mother and I prepare an overwhelming amount to feed family members! Definitely add in any kind of jam, peanut butter, honey, Nutella®, chocolate chips, fruit (diced apples, blueberries, etc.); the possibilities are endless and so delicious!

Time 10m

Yield 7

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 dash ground nutmeg
1 dash ground cloves
1 egg, lightly beaten
¾ cup milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Stir the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves together in a large bowl; mix in the egg, milk, butter, and vanilla until just combined.
  • Heat an aebleskiver pan over medium heat; prepare with cooking spray.
  • Pour the batter into each cup to about 2/3 full. Allow the batter to cook in the bottom of the cup 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown. Don't forget which cup you placed the batter in first, it's all about rotation! Use a long skewer or knitting needle to lift one edge and give it a 1/4 turn. The uncooked batter will spill over into the cup, and cook. Continue lifting and turning the edges until the batter is fully cooked into a golden brown ball. Drain on paper towels.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries for the best flavor. If using frozen blueberries, thaw them before using.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pancakes tough.
  • Heat the pan or griddle over medium heat. If the pan is too hot, the pancakes will burn.
  • Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or powdered sugar.
