Ebelskiver's are great.
My daughter and I make them as a team when ever she is in town.
Its like a tradition.

You guys are making me crazy. They are æbleskiver. I will accept aebleskiver as an alternative spelling for those who can't type an "æ". Æbleskive is the singular and æbleskiver is the plural.

Im the worst speller in the world, I was just copying what I saw. Looked good to me

And as to pronunciation, here's how the syllables split up: æ-ble-ski-ve and æ-ble-ski-ver.

I would say the accent is on the "æ".

Here, click the picture of the tiny microphone on this page: https://ordnet.dk/ddo/ordbog?query=æbleskive

must have run it 5 or 6 times. There is no accentuation in particular - they all seem to be said equally although I agree it does seem to be a little more on the first.

btw, mine shows a speaker rather than a microphone.

Do you have one of those pans? I remember seeing it talked about elsewhere and was thinking of getting one but it would only be used once or twice (if even that) per year.

I guess it could be used for making desserts as well, in which case I would use it more.... so I just might have to rethink that!

Love my toys...

D'oh! I meant speaker.

No, I don't have one of those pans. I have never made æbleskiver. I have eaten them in Denmark.

BTW, æbleskiver are a dessert or an accompaniment to coffee or tea, like pastries or coffee cake.

Madeleine Cookie

Madeleine Cookie


ingredients: eggs, sugar, flour, baking soda, unsalted butter, lemon zest


lessons learned: 1. great with milk or coffee. 2. batter rises a lot. fill tins about 1/3 and they will fill out (i filled my about 80-100% and u can see how oversized they are). 3. let batter sit overnight in fridge for best results. 4. try not to eat all in 1 sitting!


tastes like a lemon sponge cake with a crusty bottom. very cakey. dense on outside, fluffy on inside.
