How To Use an Aebleskiver Pan the correct way

My sister asked how I cook Aebleskivers. This is the best way to cook Aebleskivers because they are supposed to be hollow in the middle with a small opening. The traditional way to spin them is with a knitting needle, but i like the skewers the best.

It's 4am on March 2, 2023, in Dublin Ireland, and as I wait to fall back to sleep, I somehow end up watching this video. Lovely.

HA I FINALLY FOUND THIS AGAIN, I watched this video maybe 3-4 years ago and couldnt find it for so long

i can't believe this video has been watched 76 times!  I made it for my sister and it was easier to post it online...  that is too funny!

I'll probably never make these but just watching you make these with your children was worth every minute. Very, very special!

My grandma always used a knitting needle. I have been using coconut oil, and it works great! My grandma's recipe: Mrs. Hans Petersen (maiden name: Astrid Sorensen) 2 cups flour, 2 cups buttermilk, 3 eggs (separated), 1 tsp. baking powder, 1 tsp. soda, 1 tsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp. salt. Add sugar, salt, baking powder and soda to flour. Stir in buttermilk, egg yolks, and last the stiffly beaten egg whites. Bake in a Monk pan (Ableskiveponde). Fill holes half full. Use plenty of shortening, such as lard or Crisco (I now use coconut oil). When half baked, turn with sharp pointed fork, or knitting needle. Add more shortening and finish baking, turning them until nicely browned. Serve with jam, sugar, syrup, etc.

My mother was Danish & I grew up on these. I now understand why they're called aebleskivers (the last part of the word is more or less pronounced like "skewers"). I use to use a fork, but your use of what appears to be a wooden chopstick (skewer) looks good. I used to turn them completely over one time, but your way makes a much better ball.

This is Aunt Shelley-this video is awesome! I have been trying to make these for years, and could never get them quite right.This has helped me, so now mine have the little pocket to fill with good stuff. Thank you little brother! Fantastic video!

Thank you. Precise demonstration. Bought my pan, watched your video, and will reference back to it as I make my very 1st batch. Your time and effort is appreciated.

I just bought a pan to make these and I searched YouTube to find tips on how to cook them. This video was the first one that popped up. Very helpful, thanks for sharing!

[sammicook]

Finally know how to use my pan, thank you. After many failed attempts with recipes just not quite explaining it well. Thanks for this.

Here it is Halloween 2019 and I have one of these pans. I have never known what to do with it. I put it up for sale with 3 other pieces of Cast Iron and the buyer did not show up. So I just searched for how to use it and here you are with your video. I'm going to try to use my pan and make these for my great nephews, Thank you, this was fun to watch.

I just bought a pan to restore and this is the first video I clicked for a tutorial how to use it once re-seasoned. I LOVE IT! Super clear how to flip the batter. Kiddos chiming in was adorable and I am now thoroughly excited to get cooking.

Thanks for the instruction, and letting us be part of this great family tradition

[marymcandrew]

this is the best demo video of how to make these properly, not that I'm an expert I just bought a pan. I hope mine come out nice like yours!
