Ingredients:
- 1 Aebleskiver pan
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp ground cardamom
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ½ cup sugar
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 3 large egg whites
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- Raspberry or strawberry preserves
- Powdered sugar
Directions:
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, salt, and sugar.
- In another bowl, beat the egg yolks, vanilla and buttermilk with a whisk or handheld mixer until frothy. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just to combine.
- In another bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy and stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
- Rub a little of the unsalted butter into each indentation of a well-heated aebleskivers pan. With a paper towel, remove excess butter. Place about 1 tablespoon batter in each indentation, top with about 1⁄2 teaspoon of preserves of choice, and add another tablespoon of batter on top. Cook until the sides are set and bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes.
- Using two wooden skewers, carefully turn the aebleskivers over to cook the other side. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a platter, dust with powdered sugar, and serve hot. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Makes about 3 dozen.
