Author Notes: Tourists flock to the small California Danish village of Solvang (see Related Articles section below) by the hoardes just to get aebelskivers.  Many people think this doughnut like treat is filled with apples, and I suppose they could be made that way, but generally aren’t. In Solvang you’ll usually find aebleskivers covered with a healthy dusting of powdered sugar and served with a side of jam. The Solvang Restaurant (who kindly shared this photo with us) has made an industry out of aebleskivers, even selling a wide variety of special aebleskiver pans and a mix for those who wish to make the restaurant’s version of delicacy at home. For those who want to make aebleskivers from scratch, the folks from Pea Soup Andersen’s restaurant generously parted with their recipe. You’ll still need the aforementioned pan – a skillet made with lots of small round molds in which to cook the individual aebleskivers (see photo above).
Ingredients: 2 cups flour
2 cups buttermilk
3 eggs
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
oil for pan
Instructions:

Beat yolks of eggs with buttermilk.

Mix together sugar, salt, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cardamom.

Beat egg whites until stiff.

Mix egg yolk-buttermilk mixture with dry ingredients. Add egg whites, carefully folding them in so that they don't break down.

Heat aebleskiver pan over medium-high heat. Put 1 teaspoon salad oil in each hole and fill completely with batter. Let cook until slightly crusty on bottom. Turn slightly with a knitting needle or skewer. Continue cooking, turning the ball to keep it from burning, until the knitting needle comes out clean when stuck in the center.

Serve aebleskiver hot with powdered sugar, jam, and jelly.
