Time 1h15m

Yield 12-15 lefses

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups hot potatoes, mashed
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup light cream
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups white flour

Steps:

  • Mix the first 4 ingredients together.
  • Then add the flour, mixing thoroughly and adding a little extra flour if the dough seems too moist.
  • If using a pancake griddle, divide dough into egg-sized balls(if using a large lefse grill, larger balls will be needed.).
  • Chill the dough-balls for 30 minutes.
  • Roll out each ball on a pastry cloth until very thin.
  • Bake on a griddle or a lefse grill set at 400 - 500 degrees, until small brown spots appear on the surface. Then, turn and bake the other side until spots appear.
  • Cover with a towel or waxed paper after baking, to keep soft.
  • Serve buttered, and sprinkled with brown or granulated sugar.
