Ebelskivers (Danish Pancakes) With Lingonberry Jam
[Photograph: Carrie Vasios]
These Danish pancakes have a light, airy batter, and a sweet-tart Lingonberry jam filling. Serve them hot with a dusting of confectioners' sugar on top.
Note: Turning the ebelskivers can be tricky. I find that two chopsticks works best.

Put ebelskiver pan over medium high heat. Add 1/4 teaspoon butter to each well of the mold and, when bubbling, add 1 tablespoon of batter. Top each well with 1 teaspoon of jam, then top with another 1 tablespoon batter. Let ebelskivers cook until bottoms are golden, about 4 minutes, then flip and continue to cook until tops are also golden, 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil. Repeat with rest of batter, then serve immediately with powdered sugar on top.
