PLäTTAR (SWEDISH-FINNISH PANCAKES)
My pastor's wife is Finnish (her parents came from Finland) and this recipe of hers reminded me of the Danish Aebelskivers. Seems like pancakes are a real Scandanavian staple. They could be made in the Aebelskiver pan.

SWEDISH PANCAKES WITH LINGONBERRIES
Steps:
- Beat the eggs lightly in a large bowl, and add the milk, flour, sugar, and salt while gently stirring until blended. Stir in the melted butter. Cover the batter and refrigerate overnight or up to 2 days.
- Heat a griddle and brush it lightly with oil. Pour a thin stream of batter in a circle onto the hot griddle to make a 6-inch pancake. (The pancakes should be very thin.) Cook pancake 20 seconds, flip, and cook another 20 seconds until done.

SWEDISH PANCAKES WITH LINGONBERRIES
Steps:
- Make the Pancake Batter: Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until completely smooth. Transfer to the refrigerator to rest for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
- Meanwhile, make the Lingonberry Butter: Combine lingonberry preserves, butter and salt together in a small bowl with a fork. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat a 10 inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir the batter briefly to recombine. Brush skillet with melted butter. Pick the skillet up off of the burner and quickly add ¼ cup of batter. Immediately begin swirling the batter around the skillet so that it coats the bottom of the pan. Continue swirling until the batter is just set. Return skillet to the burner. Cook until the pancake is golden brown in spots on the bottom, about 30 seconds. Use a thin spatula to loosen the pancake, flip it over continue to cook on the other side for about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Cover with foil and transfer to oven to keep warm and repeat with remaining batter, wiping out skillet in between pancakes with paper towel as needed.
- When you are ready to serve, top each warm pancake with lingonberry butter and fold into thirds. Serve topped with lingonberry preserves.

PLäTTAR MED LINGON - SWEDISH PANCAKES WITH LINGONBERRIES
As one might guess from the name, this very thin pancake hails from Sweden. Swedish Pancakes can be served for breakfast, but Swedes also prepare them for supper accompanied with a bowl of hearty pea soup. Unlike the thicker American "flap jack", the Swedish pancake is more like the French crepe. Rather than syrup, the pancakes are usually garnished with lingonberries, a tart red berry, and sprinkled with powdered sugar.
