Aebelskivers



It seems like there are lots of different spelling. This is the way Jason's grandmother form Norway spells it. To search for the pan you will get results spelling it Ebleskiver. Here are two recipies. The first one is Jason's grandmothers and the second one it a Danish one from my brother. They are both very very yummy but I prefer the Danish one because it's a little bit faster for my hungry kids. We have them for breakfast but they could be a desert. Aebleskiver

When we make these we have 2 bowls, one with melted butter and one with sugar to dip in! I've always wondered how to spell that!
