Description
Delicious chocolate-filled Danish pancake bites that are perfect for breakfast or dessert!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Chocolate chips or chocolate spread (Nutella)
- Extra butter or oil for greasing the pan
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until you have a smooth batter.
- Preheat and Prepare the Pan: Preheat an Aebleskiver pan over medium heat and lightly grease each cavity with butter or oil.
- Cook the Pancake Bites: Pour about 1 tablespoon of batter into each cavity of the pan. Add a few chocolate chips or a teaspoon of chocolate spread in the center of each batter-filled pocket. Quickly cover with a bit more batter to seal the chocolate inside.
- Flip and Cook: Once the edges start to set, use a skewer or fork to gently turn each pancake ball over, allowing the other side to cook. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the pancake bites from the pan and let them cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve warm.
Notes
- Ensure the pan is hot enough before adding the batter to achieve a nice golden crust.
- If the batter is too thick, you can add a little more milk to achieve the desired consistency.
- Experiment with different fillings such as fruit preserves or peanut butter for variety.
- To keep warm, place cooked pancake bites on a baking sheet in an oven preheated to 200°F (93°C) until all are ready to serve.
