Ebelskivers
HB-13699 · Hand-built original · Danish
Danish spherical pancakes cooked in a dimpled ebelskiver pan from a buttermilk batter lightened with stiffly beaten egg whites.
Main ingredient: egg
Pairs well with: toast, hash browns, fruit salad, bacon, avocado
Ingredients
- 3 egg whites
- 2 ½ cup all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup butter (melted)
- 3 egg yolks
- 2 ¼ cup buttermilk
- Additional melted butter for greasing the aebleskiver pan.
Method
- Beat the egg whites in a medium bowl with a hand mixer until they stand in stiff peaks, and set that bowl aside.
- Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl, then whisk in the melted butter, the egg yolks and the buttermilk until the ebelskiver batter is just combined.
- Fold the stiff egg whites gently through the batter until the mixture comes together.
- Heat the ebelskiver pan over medium heat, brush each of its cups with melted butter, and fill each cup nearly full with about 2 tablespoons of batter.
- When the ebelskivers begin to bubble at their edges, turn each one halfway over with a wooden skewer or fork so the raw batter slides into the cup to cook, then turn them once more to complete each ball.
- Keep rotating the spherical pancakes in their cups until they are evenly golden brown and cooked all the way through.
- Lift the finished ebelskivers from the pan and serve them fresh and hot.
