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.

Smaller and thinner than their American counterparts, Swedish pancakes are quite tender and comparable in texture to French crepes. If you don't have a Swedish pancake pan, cook the pancakes in a nonstick pan.

SIMPLE SWEDISH PANCAKES



Simple Swedish Pancakes image

Lovely thin pancakes that don't take too long to make, and are an excellent food item for a special day. You can cook them on a skillet if you don't have a crepe pan. The ingredients are easy to get at grocery stores, and you can add all sorts of add-ins.

Categories     Spicy

Time 35m

Yield 13 13 pancakes, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 eggs
2 tablespoons butter (melted)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1 cup flour
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons lemon juice (optional, add more or less to preference)
1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, add more or less to preference)
1/2 teaspoon sugar (optional, if you plan to add sweet add-ins.)

Steps:

  • Place your eggs in the blender and mix until yolk and egg whites are fully mixed.
  • Melt your butter and add it into the eggs.
  • Add in the salt, then blend again.
  • Add in your milk, then blend until fully mixed.
  • If you are making one serving, add all of your flour. If you are making more than one, add in half of your flour. Then mix.
  • Add your water.
  • If you have more then one serving, add the other half of your flour.
  • Mix for about two minutes.
  • (Optional) Prepare your lemon juice and powdered sugar.
  • Heat your skillet or crepe pan to medium low to medium, depending on your stove.
  • Put some olive oil on a paper towel and spread it on your skillet or crepe pan until the surface is a little shiny.
  • When the pan sizzles when water goes on it, use a large spoon to drop your batter onto the pan and spread it in a wide circle.
  • Wait until your crepe is cooked on one side, then use a spatula or a similar item to flip it.
  • Once your crepes are cooked, feel free to add any fun ingredients you wish. Lemon juice and powdered sugar are my favorites, but you can add a large variety of other sweet, spicy, or savory things!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the taste of your pancakes.
  • Make sure your batter is well-mixed: Any lumps in the batter will result in unevenly cooked pancakes.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking: This will allow the flour to absorb the liquid and create a smoother batter.
  • Use a hot, greased skillet: This will help the pancakes cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: Leave enough space between the pancakes so that they can cook evenly.
  • Flip the pancakes only once: When you see bubbles forming on the surface of the pancakes, it's time to flip them. If you flip them too early, they will be undercooked.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately: Swedish pancakes are best served hot with your favorite toppings.

Conclusion:

Swedish pancakes are a delicious and versatile breakfast or brunch dish. They can be served with a variety of toppings, from classic butter and syrup to fresh berries and whipped cream. With a little practice, you can easily make Swedish pancakes at home that will impress your family and friends.
