Sunday Muffins: Æbleskivers (Gluten-free)

Good Morning! 

I hope everyone had a great weekend spent with loved ones -whether it was a significant other, good friends, or a loved pet! I know I did, my weekend was filled with brunch with friends, dates with Matt, and spending an early morning with one of my dearest friends at the tea shop she works at. In my opinion this has been one of the best weekend in a long time. 

This recipe isn't exactly a muffin but they are delicious and you top them with the same type of things that you would top muffins with - such a jam, butter, chestnut cream, and lemon curd. While you do have to have a special pan to make them, they are super easy to make! 

Æbleskiver (serves 4)
1 cup gluten-free flour (when my mom makes them she uses this gluten free flour)
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp sugar
2 eggs, separated
1 cup milk
3 tbs unsalted butter, melted

Toppings

In a small bowl mix the dry ingredients together. In a larger bowl whisk the egg yolks, milk, and 2 tbs melted butter together until combined. Add the dry ingredients to this mixture and mix until just combined. Beat the egg whites until dry peaks form, now fold the whites into the other mixture. DO NOT OVER MIX NOW OR THEY WON'T BE FLUFFY! 

Heat the pan over medium heat, use the extra butter to grease each of the little holes and fill with the batter (about 3/4 of the way up). Cook until the sides are golden about 3 minutes. Now the tricky part, using some bamboo skewers turn the aebleskiver over so the other side will cook. Cook about 2 minutes more, until golden, and remove from the pan. Repeat until you have used all of your batter. Serve warm with your favorite toppings! 

Happy cooking (and eating)
