Ebel….what?? Ebelskiver! You know, that pan you saw at Williams-Sonoma and immediately decided you needed in the hopes of making this hard-to-pronounce confection that you never had but looked delicious and fun?? Also, that same pan that sat empty on your shelf for WAAYYY more years then I care to admit. Does anyone else do this? I insist on having every specialized kitchen utensil and then rarely use it! I actually do use more than most, but this definitely falls under the unnecessary but totally fun item to have.

I am also here to tell you that I totally regret having never used this until now. Ebelskivers are delicious! They are like a cross of pancakes and donut holes. Who wouldn’t like that???

Do yourself a favor. Go pick you up a pan and make these!
