DANISH OVEN PANCAKE (AEGGEKAGE)



Danish Oven Pancake (Aeggekage) image

An Aeggekage is a traditional Danish oven pancake, usually served as a buffet item or as a dessert for a family holiday meal. It is a light, cake-like dish that is not too sweet and absolutely delicious with fresh seasonal berries and fresh whipped cream! (Think of it as a sweetened Yorkshire pudding). Just make sure you serve immediately, this pancake does not do well cold nor is it a good leftover. But chances are you won't have any remaining Aeggekage to worry about!

FLAESKEAEGGEKAGE (DANISH BACON & EGG PANCAKE/OMELET)



Flaeskeaeggekage (Danish Bacon & Egg Pancake/Omelet) image

In Scandanavia, the word pancake is an almost generic term used for crepes, omelets & true pancakes, but mostly for crepes & omelets. The origin of this recipe is my "Classic Scandanavian Cooking" by Nika Hazelton cookbook & the intro suggests using a very tasty & full-flavored bacon for the best result. If I were in the US & making this dish, I'd be using a thick-sliced peppered bacon or good maple-flavored bacon.

Time 20m

Yield 1 Omelet, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 lb bacon (Danish or bacon of choice, sliced)
6 eggs
1/2 cup milk (or light cream)
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons chives (fresh, chopped)

Steps:

  • Fry bacon in a med-sized non-stick skillet till crisp. Remove bacon to drain on paper towel. Remove any rendered bacon fat in excess of 3 tablespoons When bacon has cooled, crumble into sml pieces & set aside. (NOTE: I've not had Danish bacon, but it is sold canned, is lean & well-flavored. The recipe says to reserve all bacon fat in the skillet if using Danish bacon, but I amended that to allow for using most US types of bacon.).
  • Beat eggs w/milk, flour, salt & chives. Reheat bacon fat & pour egg mixture into it.
  • When the omelet begins to set, sprinkle the crumbled bacon on the top & lift cooked omelet edges w/a fork so the uncooked portion runs underneath. Cont cooking till the eggs are set & the edges golden brown. Fold the omelet & serve hot, cutting the omelet in half to serve 2 hearty appetites or 3 wedges for less hearty appetites.
  • For a firmer omelet, turn out onto a plate& return the omelet to the skillet, uncooked side down. Brown lightly & serve.
  • NOTE: Not a part of the recipe, but I like cream cheese w/this & add a smear of it to half the omelet b4 I fold it over.

Tips:

  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or non-stick pan for best results.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan with bacon or eggs. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy, but not burnt. This will add a nice smoky flavor to the dish.
  • Be careful not to overcook the eggs. They should be cooked through, but still have a slight runny yolk.
  • Serve the flæskestegseggekage with your favorite toppings, such as ketchup, brown sauce, or salsa.

Conclusion:

Flæskestegseggekage is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover bacon and eggs, and it is also a fun and interactive dish to make with family and friends. Flæskestegseggekage is sure to become a new favorite in your household!
