I am currently obsessed with all things ball-shaped. Ever since I pulled out our takoyaki pan from the highest shelf, I’ve been convinced that I need to use it more and more. It takes a lot of effort to put it back – usually it’s buried behind a bunch of things – so I’m going to enjoy it while I can. If you have a takoyaki pan, you might be wondering, what can I make in a takoyaki pan? The answer is: EVERYTHING!
There are so many things you an make ball shaped. Imagine tiny round pizza balls, spherical cheese filled hash browns, and little grilled yaki onigiri rice balls. These all sound amazing, but the cutest thing to make might be pancake balls, otherwise known as Danish aebleskiver!
If you’re a pancake fan, and I am, you’ll love aebleskiver, fluffy little pancake balls served up for dessert usually but maybe also as a breakfast food? Danish peeps, let me know! From what I can tell, they’re a special treat that is usually served around Christmas, but maybe also eaten at breakfast time? Either way, they’re absolutely delicious and since they’re technically a “pancake” I’m calling them breakfast.
