My mom made these sometimes for breakfast on weekends while I was growing up. There’s a lot of varieties of aebelskivers (little, round Danish donuts), but she always made ones filled with applesauce. I’m still trying to develop the knack of making them! Aebleskivers are made in a special pan with small, round cups. You can find them online, if they aren’t available locally. Times are estimated.
