Swedish Pancakes Plättar Recipes

SWEDISH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix everything in a blender.
• **You make these like a crepe but cook both sides. I'm not very good at it so my directions may not be right on -- I'm writing this from past observation -- I use a crepe maker and only cook one side.**.
• Fill a large pot halfway with water and set to simmer. Place a heat proof plate on top of the pot -- You can stack the pancakes on it to keep them warm as you're making more.
• Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease it lightly with butter.
• Pour a small amount of batter (tablespoon or 2) in the center of the skillet and tilt it in a circular pattern so that it coats the whole bottom in a very thin layer, like a crepe.
• Cook it until solid and flip it over. It should be lightly browned on each side. Stack them on the warmed plate.
• To serve them you fold them into thirds and put toppings over them. Or you can fill them like a crepe.
• I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! I wish I had the knack for making them.

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.

SWEDISH PANCAKES

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, combine eggs with 1/2 cup milk. Process until completely smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Stop the food processor and add flour. Process again until smooth and thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Add remaining milk, butter, granulated sugar, vanilla, and salt.
• Heat Swedish pancake pan over medium. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of batter into each circle. Cook until the edges turn golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with a fork, and continue cooking 1 to 2 minutes more. (To cook pancakes without a Swedish pancake pan, use a buttered nonstick pan and spoon 1 tablespoon batter per pancake. Pancakes will be less regular in shape.)
• Serve with confectioners' sugar, fresh fruit, and jam as desired.

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center of the dry mixture; set aside.
• In another medium mixing bowl combine the egg, milk, and cooking oil. Add egg mixture all at once to the dry mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy).
• For standard-size pancakes, pour about 1/4 cup batter onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. For dollar-size pancakes, pour about 1 tablespoon batter onto a hot, lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. Cook over medium heat about 2 minutes on each side or till pancakes are golden brown, turning to second sides when pancakes have bubbly surfaces and edges are slightly dry. Serve warm.
