AUTHENTIC SWEDISH PANCAKES



Authentic Swedish Pancakes image

This is an authentic Swedish pancake recipe that was taught to my father by his mother, who was born in Sweden. My father then passed it to me. Kids love them. Never any leftovers when I make them. To serve, you can spoon melted butter over pancakes and sprinkle with sugar, or serve with lingonberry sauce. You can also use the batter to make crepes.

SWEDISH PANCAKES



Swedish Pancakes image

These are very thin and crepe like but are heavier. They have a very smooth texture. I've read that these may not be authentic Swedish pancakes but the recipe was passed down to my great Grandmother Helen from my Swedish great great Grandmother Maria. It is over 100 years old...possibly 150 or more! Some of my Swedish relatives started the famous Svenhards bakery here in California. They no longer own it but their original packages have my great great Aunt Tilda's (Maria's sister) photo on them! There are similar recipes on Zaar but none with these proportions. My family eats them with maple syrup with melted butter in it and boysenberry syrup drizzled over that and then sprinkled with powdered sugar. You can also eat them with fresh fruit or jam. Servings are an estimate...some people eat 3...or some like me can eat 10! *My Grandmother makes these with up to 5 eggs sometimes and does add a pinch or two of salt.

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt, my Grandmother's addition (optional)
3 eggs (Sometimes my Grandmother uses up to 5 eggs)
1/2 cup butter, melted

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.

GRANDMA'S SWEDISH PANCAKES



Grandma's Swedish Pancakes image

Here's another old recipe from my husband's Swedish grandmother. These pancakes are nice and thin, much like a crepe. Once you make up the batter, you can make as many pancakes as needed, and you can freeze the rest to use at a later date! Works perfectly. Enjoy!

Provided by Debbie Sue

Categories     Pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 eggs
2 c milk
1 c sifted flour
3/4 tsp salt
4 Tbsp melted butter
extra butter for cooking

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!

Time 25m

Yield 12 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups whole milk
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Confectioners' sugar, maple syrup and fresh fruit, for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet. Combine the flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla and salt in a blender; process until smooth.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Warm the same skillet over medium heat until a drop of water bounces and sizzles. Add 1 teaspoon butter; turn to coat the pan with the melted butter. Pour in a scant 1/3 cup batter and quickly swirl the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Cook until the pancake sets, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, carefully lift the pancake by the edges and flip; cook until lightly golden on the other side, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate; keep warm in the oven while making the others. Repeat with the remaining butter and batter to make about 12 pancakes. If the pancakes seem too thick, thin the batter slightly with warm water. Fold or roll and serve with confectioners' sugar, syrup and fresh fruit.

This is my Grandmas recipe. We would so look forward to Christmas morning when she would make these. There were 5 children and 8 adults, so she would truly have her job cut out for her! They are very thin and tender, we would always clamor for more, poor woman! No wonder she only made them once a year!

GAMMA'S SWEDISH PANCAKES



Gamma's Swedish Pancakes image

These are thin pancakes. Trust the process-batter is very thin and runny! We always roll them up into little logs to serve with toppings or stuff rolled inside. It's fun for the kids to pick their own toppings. They 'keep' well, and it doesn't hurt the quality to collect them on a dish in the oven while you cook the whole batch so everyone can eat together. Save the leftovers, they microwave great!
