Editorial Reviews:

For those who aren't familiar with the term ebleskiver, they are delightful small and spherical pancakes sometimes filled with fruit or nuts, and adored by Scandinavian folk. You can use a basic pancake recipe, or one provided with the pan, and you can get creative with adding other ingredients, powdering with sugar after baking, and so on. In any case, if you want to make ebleskiver, you must have a traditional ebleskiver pan.

Summary: Modern Aebelskiver Pan Is Great!
Comment: I used to own a cast iron Aebelskiver pan, and it was constantly rusting up despite trying to care for it properly. This new non-stick pan is a real treat to use and clean up is a breeze. The first time I used it I was very impressed with how the non-stick finish made turning the little puffy "pancakes" so easy, which in turn made making them the sought-after rounded shape so much easier as well. A tiny bit of oil brushed in each well was sufficient to prevent sticking. I used a home-made recipe (found online) and they were a real hit. Clean-up was wicked easy as well. Nothing stuck, so a very easy and quick clean-up was all that was needed. Great little pan, and I recommend it.

Summary: The real Pancake Puff pan!
Comment: My son saw the infomercial for the Pancake Puff pan on TV. I know first-hand, coming from a Swedish family, that this is nothing new. My 97 year old Grandmother has several cast iron versions hanging in her home. I asked for one and she gladly handed it over. My father commented that he always thought they were egg poachers. We fired up stove but with the age of the pan and the natural difficulty of cast iron, my aebelskivers came out very poorly. So, I threw heredity to the wind and went online to find a teflon version. My son was so excited to use this. Any batter will work, but it must be a thinner mixture than what most normal boxed mixes result in. Anyone who complains that they can't turn these with absolute ease is not doing it correctly. The object is not to poke the aebelskiver and manually flip it. You are really just using the stick (or whatever you use) to spin it over so the uncooked side cooks. Just slide the stick under and sort of spin it under itself. It'll spin right around. We have a lot of fun with this. I also bought the cookbook that Amazon sold as a package with the pan. There are only a few pages of recipes that can be used with the pan. The rest are Scandinavian recipes every Grandmother has in her own recipe box. They can easily be halved; we are a family of 4 and always have too many leftover when we use the regular recipe.

Summary: Fabulous!
Comment: This is a great product. I definitely recommend it. Just make sure you get it nice and hot before you add batter.

Summary: Wow !! (Look at my photos)
Comment: I got this as one of the 4-for-3 promotion. And it works great. The aebleskivers came out very well, perfectly shaped. Anyway, I did not make aebleskivers with it !! Instead, there is a savory, spicy version of it in Indian cuisine called "Kuzhi Paniyaaram". When I was searching for one such pan, this pan was looking identical that we used to use back in India !!
That was when I learnt about Aebleskiver - a Danish delicacy. Anyway, I might try that after I get a good aebleskiver mix. Also, there is the Japanese version Takoyaki, Thai version Kanom Krok etc. That's all the part of learning.
As for the Pan, it sits pretty well on my electric-coil range. Heats evenly and the best thing is there is no toiling with turning the aebleskivers. Just a pair of plastic / silicone forks will do. No sticking and all. Yes, you can also use bamboo skewers. But I prefer forks since they are re-usable.
Try not to use any metal utensil on this pan. That said, the only disadvantage of this pan is you cannot use high heat. Only medium heat. But that's an advantage in disguise, I'd say. Since, you get great tasting aebleskivers every time instead of very brown or burnt ones.
I was a bit worried about getting the one with wooden handle like the previous reviewers said. But no, I got the same one in the photo - black insulated handle. And thanks AMAZON for delivering it on time a week before the estimated delivery date .....KEEP IT UP....
