Scrull
Scrull is a delightful, crispy treat with a rich buttery flavor, perfect for breakfast or snack time, appealing to those who love sweet, flaky pastries.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Add sugar to melted butter and mix well.
- Add beaten eggs, water, vanilla, salt, and flour to the mixture and combine thoroughly.
- Put 1 teaspoon of batter onto the Scrull iron.
- Cook until golden and remove.
- Roll into a cone shape while warm.
Tips & Substitutions
To achieve a perfect Scrull, ensure your butter is fully melted but not too hot when mixing with sugar to prevent the eggs from cooking. You can substitute half the sugar with brown sugar for a richer flavor. If you don't have a Scrull iron, a waffle iron can work in a pinch, though the texture will differ slightly.
Serving Suggestions
Serve Scrulls warm, rolled into cones, and filled with whipped cream or your favorite fruit compote for a delightful treat. They pair wonderfully with coffee or milk. For a savory twist, try filling them with a mixture inspired by Parmesan-Caraway Appetizers for a unique appetizer option.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover Scrulls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes to restore their crispness. Avoid microwaving as it can make them soggy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make the batter ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the batter in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Just give it a good stir before using, as it may thicken slightly while chilling.
What can I do if my Scrulls are sticking to the iron?
Make sure your Scrull iron is well greased before adding the batter. If they still stick, try increasing the cooking time slightly or use a non-stick spray specifically designed for baking.
Can I freeze the cooked Scrulls?
Yes, you can freeze cooked Scrulls. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet to freeze, then transfer them to a freezer bag. To reheat, bake from frozen at 350°F for 10-12 minutes until warmed through.
