dessertVegetarianNut-Free

Ingredients

  • Egg3 Large
  • Sugar3/4 cup
  • Butter2/3 Cup
  • Cardamom1 teaspoon
  • Nutmeg1 pinch
  • Salt1/2 teaspoon
  • Flour1 1/4 cup
  • WaterSplash

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk the egg and sugar until the mixture thickens.

  2. 2

    Melt the butter and let it cool slightly, then add the butter to the egg mixture.

  3. 3

    Mix in spices and then slowly add the flour while stirring to avoid lumps.

  4. 4

    Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    This improves the texture of the krumkaker.

  6. 6

    Spoon about one heaping tablespoon of batter onto iron and bake.

  7. 7

    If the batter is too thick, add some water to it.

  8. 8

    While still hot, shape the krumkake with a wooden krumkake roller or over a cup (if using a cup, make them a bit thicker).

  9. 9

    The krumkaker harden quickly, so you can just let them sit on the roller/cup until the next krumkake is ready to be shaped.

  10. 10

    After completely cooled, store the krumkaker in a metal or glass tin lined with paper towels at the bottom.

    You can also freeze them!
