Æbleskiver is a Danish christmas dessert that directly translates to "apple slices". A more appropriate and commonly used name is "pancake balls" though. Using specialized pans with round half-globe indents we create these balls of sweet dough. Back in the days it was custom to add one slice of apple to the center, hence the name, but no one really does that anymore. 

Apple slices to many have the flavour of christmas. This is what we serve for gatherings, christmas lunches, family celebrations and in street vendors all throughout christmas. The most traditional way of serving it is on a plate containing around three balls, strawberry jam and powdered sugar. It is often served with glogg.
