Danish Ebelskivers with Jam

  • Author: Krista
  • Prep Time: 10 min
  • Cook Time: 20 min
  • Total Time: 30 min
  • Yield: 12 Ebelskivers 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 + 3/4 cup pancake mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons of your favorite jam or jelly
  • about 2 tablespoons of butter divided or non-stick cooking spray to ensure the batter doesn’t stick.
  • powder Sugar – optional for garnish
  • maple syrup 

Instructions

  1. Place the first 3 ingredients in a bowl and mix/stir or whisk until all the lumps are gone. I like to mix everything in a bowl or measuring cup that has a little spout, this makes it a little easier to pour into the pan
  2. Heat Eelskiver pan on medium heat. Place a tiny pad of butter in each divot or spray with non-stick spray (your choice, either one works just as well).
  3. Once the pan is hot, pour in the batter not quite to the top of each well. With a small spoon place a tiny bit of jam in each, right in the middle of the batter (see pix). Then cover the jam with a tad more batter. Let batter cook until the edges start to pull away from the side and the center is all bubbly. (see pix). About 3 minutes. Note – if the bottoms are burning before the top is bubbly, adjust the heat to a lower setting.
  4. Using chopsticks (or something similar) quickly flip the ebelskiver all the way over. Don’t worry if the batter runs out a little, just keep flipping, it will all even out once it cooks. If you’d like, they do make a special turning tool I call“flippers”. But you can really use anything you’d like just make sure it doesn’t scratch your non-stick skillet.
  5. Once the second side is cooked and slightly browned, about 2 minutes, place on a plate and sprinkle with powder sugar. I like to warm up ramekins of syrup for dunking. Serve immediately as these are best eaten hot!
