Eble Skivers

This recipe requires a special pan to cook them in.  This is what one looks like.


Yields : Approx.  40-50 Eble Skivers
Prepare:  15 min.  Cook: 20 min.

1/2 tsp. Cream of Tarter
2 T. Sugar
2 C. Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 1/2 C. Milk
6 Eggs

Separate eggs.  Beat Eggs Whites with Cream of Tarter until it forms soft peaks and set aside.  Beat egg yokes and add sugar.  Then alternate Milk and Dry Ingredients, making sure to beat after each is added.  Fold Egg Whites into Egg yolk mixture.

Heat pan on stove on medium heat.  Spray pan and pour batter into each individual cup, filling almost all the way full.  When the sides start to bubble and look a little dry, then turn 180 deg. and cook on the other side.  Batter will still be a little runny when it is turned and that's what helps it make the circle shape.

Serving Suggestions:
Dip in Melted Butter and Powdered Sugar
Dip in Favorite Jam
Inject and fill with pudding into the middle of the Eble Skiver.
You can also add chopped up Apples or Bananas to the batter for a tastier treat.  Just use your imagination.

My Note:  To turn the Eble Skivers I just use a fork and turn it.  My brother uses a crochet hook and my sister in law uses a wooden skewer.  Use whatever works best for you.  Also, my sister in law also turns hers 3 times, turning only 90 deg. each time.  They end up looking more uniform this way, but I have never been able to get mine to work out.  I think they work just fine turning only once.

These pans are a little hard to find.  I got mine at Gygi's in Salt Lake City, UT, about 8 years ago.  They have a couple different kinds of them.  Mine is cast iron and I quite love it.  They rang in price from 10-30 dollars.  (I paid 25 for mine).  There are some at Target.com,  Aqua Superstore, and Amazon.com.  Remember to look out for the shipping costs when you buy one though.  They are heavy and the shipping could get quite pricey.
