Ingredients

Serves: 30

2 egg whites

250g plain flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 egg yolks

Method

Prep:15min › Cook:15min › Ready in:30min

In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they can hold a stiff peak. Set aside.

Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, bicarbonate of soda, sugar, egg yolks, melted butter and buttermilk and beat until smooth. Gently fold in the egg whites.

Place 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the bottom of each aebleskiver pan hole and heat until hot. Pour in about 2 tablespoons of the batter into each hole. As soon as they get bubbly around the edge, turn them quickly with a fork. Continue cooking, turning the ball to keep it from burning.
