The Aebleskive Batter:
Step 1: Separate the egg whites and yolks in separate bowls.
Step 2: Whisk the sugar and egg whites fluffy and stiff. The bowl must be completely clean and dry. A tiny bit of water will make the eggs whites impossible to whisk stiff. Leave this bowl for now.
Step 3: Mix the egg yolks, all-purpose flour, natron (baking soda), salt and vanilla sugar together in a separate bowl.
Step 4: Use a hand mixer to mix the ingredients while gradually adding the buttermilk. Keep mixing until the batter is uniform.
Step 5: Melt the butter and let it cool off a bit. Slowly add the cooled butter to the buttermilk mixture while whisking.
Step 6: Use a wooden spoon or similar to slowly mix the stiff eggs whites in the batter.The Cooking of Aebleskiver:You need a special aebleskive pan for frying. You can get one online or maybe at your local kitchen store.
Step 7: Heat up the aebleskive pan at medium heat and add a small piece of butter in each hole. Fill the holes 3/4 with the aebleskive batter.
Step 8: When the edges starts to get firm, and you can turn them over without cracking, then turn the aebleskiver 90 degrees (using a wooden stick or similar) and let the batter flow into the pan.
Step 9: At this point there is a hole in the side of the aebleskive. Pour a little extra batter into the hole and turn the aebleskive another 90 degrees so that the hole gets closed.
Step 10: When the aebleskiver have a solid surface turn them regularly so they get an even and light-brown crust.
Tip: At step 9, try adding different fillings inside the aebleskiver . We can recommend filling with chocolate chips, strawberry jam or small apple pieces. Serve these Danish aebleskiver together with some jam and icing sugar.
