EBELSKIVER (SPICED APPLE-FILLED PANCAKES)

Steps:

• To make the filling:
• In a fry pan over medium heat, cook the butter, brown sugar, apples, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon and lemon juice, stirring frequently, for about 20 minutes.
• Drain off any liquid. Set aside.
• To make the maple whipped cream:.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat together the heavy cream, maple syrup and salt until soft peaks form.
• Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• To make the filled-pancake batter:
• In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, granulated sugar and salt.
• In another bowl, lightly whisk the egg yolks, then whisk in the buttermilk and sour cream.
• Whisk the egg yolk mixture into the flour mixture until well combined; the batter will be lumpy.
• Set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff but not dry peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently stir the whites into the batter in two additions.
• Brush the wells of a filled-pancake pan with melted butter. Heat over medium heat until the butter bubbles.
• Pour 1 Tbs. batter into each well and cook for 2 minutes.
• Spoon 1/2 teaspoons apple filling into the center of each pancake and top with 1 Tbs. batter.

• Transfer the pancakes to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• In a small bowl, combine the confectioners sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle on the pancakes.

SPICED APPLESAUCE PANCAKES (DAIRY-FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat a large skillet or griddle to medium heat.
• In a medium mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices.
• In another medium mixing bowl, whisk one egg until frothy. Then add applesauce, vegetable oil, water and vanilla and whisk until combined.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and whisk in the wet ingredients all at once.
• Using a 1/4 cup sized measuring cup, pour batter onto the hot, greased skillet/griddle over medium heat, leaving enough space between each pancake for them to expand. With the bottom of your measuring cup or the back of a spoon, spread out the batter in a circular motion until pancake is an even layer.
• Cook for 2-4 minutes or until surface begins to bubble and edges appear slightly dry. Turn and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.
• Serve hot with butter and maple syrup (or your choice of syrup).
