Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sante Cabin Kitchen Aebleskiver Pan
Customer Review: Tasty but tricky...
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw aebleskivers made on an episode of Diner's Drive-Ins and Dives and they looked really good and like a fun breakfast idea for the kids. I Watched several Youtube videos on the subject to see what style of pan I should get since there are several out there to choose from. This style looked best and was well-reviewed on Amazon so I ordered it. The price was very good for the quality and the pan was well-packed and arrived quickly. The fact that it came preseasoned allowed me to use it right away. I bought a bamboo "stick" to turn them but it definately is NOT as easy as it looks on the videos I saw. Forget about trying to turn them 4 times! I add a bit of butter to the each depression and then quickly add the batter before the butter gets too hot and burns. Once they start to cook you have to wait until just the right minute to try and turn them. Too soon and you'll just poke holes through them. Too late and they will be burned but I've found that it takes longer than it seems like is should before they are just right and ready to be turned. I could try a hotter pan to reduce the cooking time but that would increase the rick of burning. When the one side has cooked enough they easily come away from the edges of the pan. Rather than try to turn them 4 times I turn them completely over just once. They still come out round and it is MUCH less of a hassle. I've experimented with adding apples which was delicious and blueberries which was also good. I sprinkle them with powdered sugar when I put them on the plate and then dip them in syrup as I eat them. I've also seen people sprinkle them with cinnamon and sugar. The whole family loves them. I've been using Krusteze pancake mix to make them and it works great. Actually tastes different than a pancake made with the same mix. Overall, this is a great pan and makes a really neat breakfast dish to impress your family and friends. Just remember, practice makes perfect when it comes to getting them "just right".Customer Review: I love Æbleskivers and this is the pan
Summary: 5 Stars
Although my family on my Mom's side is Danish, and I spent a lot of time on the farms in Iowa as a kid, I had never had an Æbleskiver until about 3 years ago, at a family reunion. My cousin, who was doing most of the organizing of the trip, had said we would have to have Æbleskivers and Medisterpolse. I didn't have a clue as to what she was talking about. She said she would buy me a pan, so I could make some too. Well, I was game for that.
Anyhow, to make a long story short, I got the pan, learned out to make those delicious little pancake balls and have enjoyed them ever since. Making up for all those lost years. Unfortunately, I lost the pan. I don't know how. I don't know where, but I lost the pan.
So, on to my favorite on-line store, Amazon.com. And I found this pan. I just got it today, and it is perfect. Just like the one my cousin gave me. It is pre-seasoned, so it's ready to go. Some of the other pans I saw, the little holes didn't look deep enough, and some of the pics showed rather flat looking "balls". Æbleskivers are supposed to be ball shaped, not flying saucer shaped. This one will do the trick. The holes are deep and when you flip these things, they are going to come out the way they're supposed to. I also read of some being small, and so I compared the size, and some did look to be small. This one is a perfect fit over my gas stove.
Unfortunately, I'll not be cooking any until at least next weekend, but I am certainly looking forward to more Æbleskivers in my new pan.
Recommended purchase. Oh, yeah, I'd recommend Æbleskiver and More: A Sampling of Danish Recipes to go a long with it. If you're going to pay shipping on a $22.50 pan, you might as well get something for it, and that book has a lot of neat recipes in it.
Customer Review: Quality product at an awesome price
Summary: 5 Stars
Aebleskiver Pans are absolutely necessary if you want to make these delightful breakfast treats. Whenever we have guests and serve them aebleskivers for the first time, they are always amazed and want to know how to make them. Of course, the first hurdle is finding a quality pan at a reasonable price. The search is over. We have bought several of these pans as gifts for friends and relatives and it is always greatly appreciated. Thank you amazon for making this so easy. We recommend the pre seasoned pan because it's ready to go, right out of the box.Customer Review: Great Pan!
Summary: 5 Stars
I wasn't very convinced on this aebleskiver stuff, but after purchasing this pan, everybody in my family loves them. I have made them with blueberries, strawberries, chocolate chips, banana, and dulce de leche.
This is a very good quality cast iron pan, it is heavy, which means it will distribute heat evenly!
Definitely practice is in order to get the perfect round aebleskiver, but even the ones that are not that round are delicious!
Customer Review: Makes perfect Aebleskiver
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an awesome Aebleskiver pan. Very solid, and non-stick starting with the very first batch. The pan distributes heat very evenly, resulting in perfectly round golden balls which are delicious - I used some of the recipes which came with the pan, and added various fillings in the middle (chocolate chips, finely chopped apples, Japanese red bean paste...etc). Great value for a pan which will last forever.
