Aebleskiver

Ingredients

• •2 cups flour
• •2 tbsp sugar
• •1 tsp baking powder
• •1/4 tsp baking soda
• •1/4 tsp salt
• •1/4 tsp ground cardamom
• •2 eggs, separated
• •2 cups buttermilk
• •1/4 cup melted butter, plus more for the pan
• •Powdered sugar and jam, for serving

Steps

1. 1.Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cardamom in a bowl.
2. 2.In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the buttermilk and melted butter, then stir into the dry ingredients until just combined.
3. 3.Beat the egg whites to soft peaks in a clean bowl, then gently fold them into the batter - this is what makes aebleskiver fluffy rather than dense.
4. 4.Heat an aebleskiver pan over medium heat and brush each cup generously with butter.
5. 5.Fill each cup about two-thirds full with batter, and cook until bubbles form around the edges and the bottom is golden, about 2 minutes.
6. 6.Using a wooden skewer or chopstick, turn each ball a quarter turn, letting the uncooked batter flow into the space - keep turning every minute or so until the ball is golden and cooked through on all sides, forming a full sphere.
7. 7.Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with jam.
