Norwegian Krumkake Recipe

Norwegian Krumkake is a traditional Norwegian waffle cookie that is typically enjoyed during the Christmas season. These delicate, crispy treats are made using a special Krumkake iron and are often filled with whipped cream or other sweet fillings. This recipe will guide you through the process of making authentic Norwegian Krumkake from scratch.

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cardamom, and salt.
2. Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined and you have a smooth batter.
3. Heat the Krumkake iron on a stovetop over medium heat.
4. Place a tablespoon of batter in the center of the hot iron, close the lid, and cook for about 30 seconds until the cookie turns golden brown.
5. Carefully remove the cookie from the iron using a wooden or heat-resistant spatula.
6. While the cookie is still warm, gently roll it around a Krumkake cone or a clean, wooden spoon handle to create its traditional cone shape.
7. Allow the cookie to cool and harden into shape.
8. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
9. Serve the Krumkake as is or fill it with your choice of sweet fillings, such as whipped cream, jam, or Nutella.
10. Enjoy your homemade Norwegian Krumkake!
