  1. 1▢
  2. 2Whisk the egg and sugar until the mixture thickens.
  3. 3▢
  4. 4Melt the butter and let it cool slightly, then add the butter to the egg mixture.
  5. 5▢
  6. 6Mix in spices and then slowly add the flour while stirring to avoid lumps.
  7. 7▢
  8. 8Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. This improves the texture of the krumkaker.
  9. 9▢
  10. 10Spoon about one heaping tablespoon of batter onto iron and bake. If the batter is too thick, add some water to it.
  11. 11▢
  12. 12While still hot, shape the krumkake with a wooden krumkake roller or over a cup (if using a cup, make them a bit thicker). The krumkaker harden quickly, so you can just let them sit on the roller/cup until the next krumkake is ready to be shaped.
  13. 13▢
  14. 14After completely cooled, store the krumkaker in a metal or glass tin lined with paper towels at the bottom. You can also freeze them!
