What’s for Easter Breakfast? Blackberry Ebelskivers
What the heck is an Ebelskiver?
A Ebelskiver is the most wonderful breakfast creation. It’s a Danish pancake puff…mmm! Traditionally, these little beauties are made unstuffed or stuffed with apples. I developed a twist for you today and stuffed them with blackberries and I can assure you, it’s a wonderful substitute.
How do you make Ebelskiver?
This gives you an idea of how easy and fun Ebelskiver are to make. You just pour in the batter, stuff them, pour over some more batter, flip them, and EAT! You do need the special pan shown, but they are fairly inexpensive and readily available.
I used this Ebelskiver Pan (Nordic Ware available on Amazon, this one ) Also: Electric Model $35, Cast Iron Model $37.95, Ebelskiver Flipper $6.99.
Also, I think you will love these Specialty Food Ebelskiver Mixes, if you don’t want to whip them up yourself: Ebelskiver Mix
- Filling:
- Pint of washed Blackberries (or any berries will do)
- 1¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. Baking powder
- 1½ Tbsp. granulated sugar
- ½ tsp. salt
- 3 egg yolks
- 1⅓ cups buttermilk
- ½ cup sour cream or plain yogurt
- 5 egg whites
- 5 Tbsp butter, melted
- For batter:
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the egg yolks, then mix in the buttermilk and sour cream.
- Whisk the egg yolk mixture into the flour mixture until combined; expect the batter to be lumpy.
- Set batter aside.
- In another bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed with a hand mixer until stiff, 2-3 minutes (Dry peaks should not form)
- Gently fold the egg whites into the batter, ½ of the egg whites at a time.
- Your batter is now ready
- Brush the ebelskiver holes with melted butter.
- Heat pan on medium to medium high. Watch carefully
- Spoon 1 Tbsp batter into each well and cook for 1 minute.
- Put two blackberries into the center of the batter of each pancake.
- Top with one Tbsp. batter.
- Cook until bottoms are golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes.
- Using a wooden skewer (or chopsticks or a knitting needle) to flip the pancakes over.
- Cook until golden brown 2-3 minutes.
- Repeat with remaining batter.
- Makes about 30 if you don't eat them as you make them!

I love them, thanks!
I like how you changed it up from the traditional apples. We just did that with muffins. We had blackberries to us and made blackberry muffins instead of blueberry. Do you top these like we do our pancakes with syrup or whipped cream or are these meant to be eaten plain?
Hi Sherry, They are traditionally topped with powdered sugar but I felt they were JUST TOOOOO sweet that way. I prefer the taste of the berries to come through that the dough is fabulous too. The Chief BLonde
