Aebelskiver's are delicious and fun.
My Danish grandmother, Nana, made them for us, as did my mother, and I made them for my children. My recipe is basically a good, buttermilk pancake recipe, the only difference being the egg whites are beaten separately and folded in. Enjoy. Maggie

A college friend's Mom used to make Sunday breakfast with treats from this pan. I am thinking it would work great for small corn-fritter-ish dough balls. A basic frozen pizza dough would be a good place to start IMO, and I would be inclined to have plenty of hot oil in each spot before dropping in the fritters. And then be sure to start turning them ASAP to keep them round. I haven't watched the videos so maybe they cover this?
Good to have this thread heating up again . . . Happy Trails! Peter |

I was taught to cook Aebelskivers over pretty high heat, brushing each well with melted butter and turning a little at a time using a skewer to the edge, or a fork.
They cook, then, rather hollow inside, and Nana used to serve them with a sprinkling of powdered sugar and currant jelly she made from the bushes in her back yard. Maggie

I found this in upper NY state 4-5 years ago, and had to have it.
It is cast iron, the cooking surface coated with porcelain. After searching and posting the picture online, I was told it is similar to an Aebelskiver pan...the raised handles were for its use sitting in the cooking well of a wood cook stove, hot coals beneath. The belief was that is was probably made in the late 1800's, in Denmark. Maggie

Maggie,
I thought I remembered you mentioning it a while back. That antique one is pretty sharp. The thing that caught my attention was watching several videos about how it cooks, unique is a start. Now we just gotta practice but first batch was edible for sure. A corn bread batch is coming soon. I wonder how it would do making mini egg omelets?

I think you could cook a lot of things in an Aebelskiver pan, tho anything dense like cornbread may be more difficult to cook stovetop.
You could put it in the oven, and bake mini cornbreads or muffins, and that would work, but it would take awhile to make enough to feed a family. It doesn't show well in this picture, but both the handles on the one I just posted are raised. I could clearly tell it was meant to sit in something, but the place I bought it didn't know what it was or where it came from. I've never used it. It hangs on the wall. I remember visiting Monticello several years back, and the kitchen below the house had a special area for setting in pans like this...coals put in below. Thomas Jefferson was big into French cooking, and had an enslaved chef he took to France to learn all the techniques. The kitchen fascinated me, and I would have loved to have an opportunity someday to cook in something like that. Maggie

Amazing! Was that cheese sprinkled on top in the middle? Like mini-omelettes someone suggested earlier.
No reason a corn fritter wouldn't work . . . ! Thanks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takoyaki |

Oooh Magic raising dust!
I don't know how they do it but it sure is intriguing.

I can't lay my hands on Nana's recipe at the moment, but I got this one online and it has the same ingredients.
The video Gary loaded won't play for me, and the page on this thread has been messed up for me ever since that one, so I don't know exactly what you are referring to. I think the baking soda makes it rise, the beaten egg whites keep it light, and turning the batter with a toothpick or skewer creates the round ball. ORIGINAL RECIPE FOR DANISH AEBLESKIVER (PANCAKE BALLS) Ingredients: 250 g (9 oz) all-purpose flour 1/4 tsp salt 1/2 tsp Natron (baking soda) 1 tbsp vanilla sugar 4 dl (1.75 cups) buttermilk 100 g (3.5 oz) butter, melted 3 eggs 1 tbsp sugar Instruction: Step 1: Separate the egg whites and yolks in separate bowls. Step 2: Whisk the sugar and egg whites in a glass or metal bowl til fluffy and stiff. Step 3: Mix the egg yolks, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt and vanilla sugar together in a separate bowl. Step 4: whisk in buttermilk til smooth Step 5: Melt the butter and let it cool slightly, then add slowly to the buttermilk mixture Step 6: fold the stiff eggs whites in the batter. 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, turn each aebleskiver 90 degrees (using a wooden stick or similar) and let the batter flow into the pan. Step 9: as they brown, keep turning til cooked thru Our recipe always had the egg whites beaten separately, which makes the batter very light. Turning the batter bit by bit in the hot pan, as it cooks, gives a nice, uniformly rounded Aebelskiver, slightly hollow in the center. Maggie

I don't, of course, but someone else might.
If one were camping someplace remote for a week or two, this would be great to have along, in my opinion. I would love to have an outdoor cooking area at home....tho this is not beautiful, it is functional, and something I could do myself. I just might, one of these days. Maggie
