Æbleskiver is a traditional Danish spherical pastry, and is pronounced "EB-el-sku-wyr". The taste and texture are a cross between an American pancake and a popover, and can be creatively filled to be sweet or savory.

Aunt Else's Æbleskiver is named in honor of Else (Andersen) Jacobsen, who lives in Morgan, Minnesota. Else and her sister, Florence (Andersen) Henriksen, passed down the family recipe, their æbleskiver pans, and the proud Danish tradition of making æbleskiver to their family, friends and neighbors. Aunt Else's Æbleskiver was established in 2008 by Lisa (Henriksen) Timek, Linda (Henriksen) Engwall, Sarah Engwall, and Chad Gillard. Lisa and Linda are Florence’s daughters and therefore, Else's nieces. Sarah is Linda's daughter. Chad was captivated after seeing æbleskiver made for the first time and can't get enough of them! The four of us hand mix and package each bag of Aunt Else’s Æbleskiver Mix in a licensed kitchen in Minneapolis. We currently use Minnesota-grown organic flours, organic buttermilk from Wisconsin, organic sugar, and sea salt. Our goal is to keep all our ingredients as local and sustainable as possible. Linda’s husband Daryl, designed our 9-hole cast iron Æbleskiver pan, which is also made locally here in Minneapolis."We hand mix and package our families' Æbleskiver recipe in a licensed kitchen in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We have also designed and commissioned our own Æbleskiver pan locally here in Minneapolis and are delighted to share our families’ Æbleskiver tradition with you!"
