Grandmas Swedish Pancakes Recipes

AUTHENTIC SWEDISH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a bowl with an electric mixer until thick and lemon-colored, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in milk.
• Sift flour, sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Add to egg mixture; mix until batter is smooth.
• Grease a griddle with butter; heat over medium heat. Drop tablespoonfuls of batter on the griddle; spread to make thin pancakes. Cook until light brown on bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until second side is light brown, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.

GRANDMA'S SWEDISH THIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine eggs, milk and oil in a 2-quart mixing bowl.
• Mix well with wire whisk.
• In small bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt.
• Mix well.
• Using wire whisk, mix flour mixture into egg mixture.
• Let rest for about 10-15 minutes.
• Lightly grease skillet. I like to use a non-stick saute pan. My husband uses a cast iron skillet. I think both work fine.
• Preheat skillet over medium high heat.
• Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto hot skillet.
• With a circular wrist motion, swirl pan until batter is evenly covering bottom of pan.
• Cook until edges just start to brown.
• Carefully flip pancake over with a thin spatula. (I like to use a wide one).
• Cook turned crêpe about 20 seconds or until lightly browned.
• Slide onto plate to cool.
• Continue cooking remaining batter using same method.
• Serve hot by spreading with butter and syrup. Or Lingonberry preserves. Or sprinkled with powdered sugar. Then roll up like a crepe and enjoy.

GRANDMA'S SWEDISH PANCAKES

Steps:

• 1. Beat the eggs until fluffy with a whisk. Add the milk, whisk together.
• 2. Sift the flour and salt together. Add to the milk and eggs. Beat until smooth. Add the melted butter, and beat again.
• 3. In a large non-stick pan, (I use cast iron) melt a bit of butter to coat the bottom of the pan. Get the butter nice and hot, but do not burn.
• 4. Using a 1/2 cup measure, ( you won't use the whole 1/2 cup) pour a very thin layer of batter in the pan, and swirl it around, to coat evenly. Cooking one pancake at a time. Very much like a crepe.
• 5. Cook the pancake until lightly browned. The edges will start to brown. Then flip, and cook second side, until browned.
• 6. Place cooked pancake on a serving plate, cover and keep warm. Continue baking out as many pancakes as needed. Leftover batter freezes well.
• 7. Serve with traditional Lingonberries, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar. Enjoy!
