Norwegian Krumkake

Ingredients

• 3 Large — Egg
• 0.8 cup — Sugar

• 1 teaspoon — Cardamom
• 1 pinch — Nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon — Salt

Steps

1. ▢
2. Whisk the egg and sugar until the mixture thickens.
3. ▢
4. Melt the butter and let it cool slightly, then add the butter to the egg mixture.
5. ▢
6. Mix in spices and then slowly add the flour while stirring to avoid lumps.
7. ▢
8. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. This improves the texture of the krumkaker.
9. ▢
10. Spoon about one heaping tablespoon of batter onto iron and bake. If the batter is too thick, add some water to it.
11. ▢
12. While still hot, shape the krumkake with a wooden krumkake roller or over a cup (if using a cup, make them a bit thicker). The krumkaker harden quickly, so you can just let them sit on the roller/cup until the next krumkake is ready to be shaped.

14. After completely cooled, store the krumkaker in a metal or glass tin lined with paper towels at the bottom. You can also freeze them!
