Step 2

Melt the butter and leave to cool slightly, then stir into the egg mixture.

Step 3

Stir in the cardamom, nutmeg and salt, then slowly add the flour, stirring to avoid lumps.

Step 4

Rest the batter for at least 30 minutes. If it seems too thick, stir in a small splash of water.

Step 5

Heat a krumkake iron and spoon about 1 heaping tablespoon of batter onto it. Bake until light golden, about 30 seconds a side on a stovetop iron or 45 to 60 seconds in an electric one.

Step 6

Immediately while hot, roll around a krumkake cone roller or shape over a cup. The krumkake harden very quickly, so work fast. Let set on the roller until the next one is ready.

Step 7

Once completely cooled, store in a metal or glass pan lined with paper towels. Can also be frozen.
