Ingredients
- Egg (3 large)
- Sugar (3/4 cup)
- Butter (2/3 cup)
- Flour (1 1/4 cups)
- Cardamom (1 teaspoon)
- Nutmeg (1 pinch)
- Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
- Water (splash)
Instructions
Steps
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs and 3/4 cup sugar until the mixture becomes thick.
- Melt 2/3 cup butter and allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the egg mixture.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon cardamom and a pinch of nutmeg, then gradually incorporate 1 1/4 cups flour while mixing to prevent lumps from forming.
- Let the batter rest for a minimum of 30 minutes to enhance the texture of the krumkaker.
- Spoon approximately one heaping tablespoon of batter onto the krumkake iron and bake. If the batter appears too thick, add a splash of water.
- While the krumkake is still warm, shape it using a wooden krumkake roller or over a cup. If using a cup, make the cookies a bit thicker. Since the krumkaker harden quickly, place them on the roller or cup until you are ready to shape the next one.
- Once fully cooled, store the krumkaker in a metal or glass tin lined with paper towels at the bottom. They can also be frozen for later enjoyment!
