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.

OVEN-BAKED SWEDISH BACON PANCAKE (FLASKPANNKAKA)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• To remove saltiness of pork, cover it in water in a small saucepan and boil for 2 minutes. Drain and repeat.
• Cut pork fat into small cubes. Cook the pork in a large skillet until crisp, then drain on paper towels.
• In a food processor, combine the eggs, milk, flour and lemon zest. Process until blended (or whisk in a large bowl).
• Place a 3 quart paella pan (or other low-rimed oven-proof pan) in the oven with the butter until the butter melts. Remove the pan from the oven and tilt until the butter evenly covers the bottom.
• Pour the batter into the pan and sprinkle the pork pieces evenly over the batter.
• Return the pan to the oven and bake until golden and fluffy, about 20 minutes.
• Serve at once. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with berries and whipped cream.
