Danish Ebelskivers Basic Batter
Happy New Years everyone! In order to bring the new year in right my mom pulled out her brand new ebelskiver pan and made some delicious Ebelskivers for breakfast. Ebelskivers are delicious sphere shaped pancakes that are very light and fluffy and have a similar taste to German pancakes. They get their lightness due to the whipped egg whites being folded into the batter, which is made primarily with flour and buttermilk. These are great treats with endless possibilities. You can put any stuffing in them as well as top them with anything you want. The only thing wrong with them is that they are so easy to pop in your mouth your going to eat them up too quick!
