PLäTTAR (SWEDISH-FINNISH PANCAKES)



Plättar (Swedish-Finnish Pancakes) image

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.

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.

PANNU KAKKU (FINNISH OVEN PANCAKE)



Pannu Kakku (Finnish Oven Pancake) image

An eggy, buttery, oven pancake. This looks so good, I can't wait to try it. Putting the recipe hear for safe keeping. I got it off Erin's kitchen blog. Hope she doesn't mind. Update: Finally got to make this deliciously ooey, gooey pancake. I also added a dash of vanilla and would also recomend decreasing the butter to about 6 tbs from 8. I also preheated the oven to 400 degrees to melt the butter and then decreased the temp to 350 when I put the batter in. Oh so yummy! I will update the ingredients below so that the nutritional information is correct.

Tips:

  • Heat the skillet over medium heat: This will prevent the pancakes from burning.
  • Use a thin layer of batter: This will help the pancakes cook quickly and evenly.
  • Flip the pancakes only once: Flipping them too often can make them tough.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings: Butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream are all great options.
