Ingredients
- 2 egg whites.
- 2 cups all-purpose flour.
- 2 teaspoons baking powder.
- 1 tablespoon white sugar.
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
- 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- 2 egg yolks.
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted.
- 2 cups buttermilk.
- butter for greasing pan (optional).
Directions
- In a clean glass or metal bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they can hold a stiff peak. Set aside.
- Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, sugar, egg yolks, melted butter and buttermilk at one time and beat until smooth. Gently fold in the egg whites last.
- Heat puff dumpling pan until hot. Pour in about 2 tablespoons of the batter into each cup. As soon as they get bubbly around the edge, turn them quickly (Danish cooks use a long knitting needle, but a fork will work). Continue cooking, turning the ball to keep it from burning.
- Serve hot with syrup, jam or powder sugar and enjoy!
