How to Make Uncle Odd's Krumkaker

  1. Preheat your Krumkaker iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the iron with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This is best done with an electric mixer.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour about 1-2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot Krumkaker iron, depending on the size of your iron. Close the iron and bake for 20-30 seconds, or until golden brown.
  7. Carefully remove the Krumkaker from the iron and immediately shape them around a rolling pin or the handle of a wooden spoon while still warm and pliable. This helps them keep their shape.
  8. Let the Krumkaker cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing. Enjoy these delicious treats with family and friends!
