Aebleskiver (Danish Pancakes)

01Method

1. 1

   Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a large bowl, then fold in the egg, milk, butter, and vanilla, stirring until just incorporated.

2. 2

   Place an aebleskiver pan over medium heat and coat each cup with cooking spray.

3. 3

   Fill each cup roughly two-thirds of the way with batter. Let the batter set and brown on the bottom, about 3 to 4 minutes. Using a long skewer or knitting needle, lift one edge of each pancake ball and rotate it a quarter turn so the liquid batter flows into the cup and continues cooking. Keep rotating each one in stages until the batter is fully cooked and a golden brown sphere forms. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
