Equipment

  • Ebelskiver Pan
  • Electric Mixer

Ingredients

  • cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • tbsp granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 3 large eggs separated
  • cups buttermilk
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries
  • Confectioners sugar for dusting
  • Maple or Blueberry Syrup

Instructions

  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, granulated sugar and salt.
  • In a small bowl, lightly whisk together the egg yolks and buttermilk. Whisk the yolk mixture into the flour mixture until well combined; the batter will be lumpy.
  • In another clean bowl, using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff but not dry peaks form, (2-3 minutes).
    Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whites into the batter in two additions.
  • Put ½ teaspoon butter in each well of an Ebelskiver pan. Place over medium heat and heat until the butter begins to bubble. Pour 1 tablespoon batter into each well and cook until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy, 3-5 minutes. Put 5 or 6 blueberries in the center of each pancake and top with 1 tablespoon batter. Using 2 wooden skewers, flip the pancakes over and cook until golden and crispy, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter and blueberries.
  • Dust the pancakes with confectioners sugar and serve warm with syrup.
