Æbleskiver or apple dough balls

Æbleskiver or in English apple dough balls

( 6 persons)

Ingrédients 

300 ml  / 1.3 cup of luke-warm milk

225 gram / 8 oz plain flour 

   3 large eggs 

150 gram / 5.3 oz of slightly melted soft butter

    1 tbsp of sugar

    1 pinch of salt

Optional : Æbleskive means a slice of apple and you can put some chopped apples into the dough when you bake it in the right pan

Method :

In a large bowl pour the lukewarm milk and whisk the flour into it the milk

Then add sugar and the soft butter, whisk it so the batter is nice and smooth.

Separate the eggs.  Add the egg-yolks one by one into the batter.

Whisk the eggs whites with a pinch of salt till nice and stiff and fold the batter into the 

egg whites. 

Bake them in a special danish pan called Aebleskive pan; if you don’t have one or can’t get one try a waffle pan; I think it might work.

In Denmark you will see Christmas stalls selling them with a glass of mulled wine.

But kids love them any time of the year - adults too.

Often served with powdered sugar, jams and ice creams.
