Swedish Pancakes image

When we spend the night at my mother-in-law's house, our kids beg her to make these crepe-like, Swedish pancakes for breakfast. They're a little lighter than traditional pancakes, so my family can eat a lot! -Susan Johnson, Lyons, Kansas

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.

REAL SWEDISH PANCAKES (PANNKAKOR)



Real Swedish Pancakes (Pannkakor) image

This is how we make them here in Sweden. My mother always does them this way, and in every other Swedish family I have visited. The other recipes I have seen here have little resemblance with the original. The pancakes should be thin like crêpes. It's also important that the skillet is thoroughly and evenly hot before starting (even then, the first few may not turn out perfect). Mark 4 on a 1-6 hob is good. Note: The recipe is very easy to remember in Metric: 2 eggs times 3 (deciliters) flour equals 6 (deciliters) milk.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 eggs
1 1/4 cups plain wheat flour (not self-raising)
2 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
butter (for frying)

Steps:

  • Mix eggs, flour and salt.
  • Add the milk, a little at the time, and whisk to a smooth batter. The batter will be very thin (almost like for crêpes).
  • In a hot skillet (preferably cast-iron), add one teaspoon butter and just as much batter to cover the bottom (turn the skillet around to spread the batter). Fry the pancakes golden brown on both sides. Add more butter for each new pancake.
  • Roll or stack them on a serving plate. Keep warm.
  • Serve hot, preferably with whipped cream and jam.
  • (Leftovers can be reheated or served cold with the same accessories).

SWEDISH PANCAKES



Swedish Pancakes image

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.

GRANDMA'S BUTTERMILK PANCAKES



Grandma's Buttermilk Pancakes image

"I always knew my grandmother's buttermilk pancakes were special," says Christopher Hirsheimer. "I loved them, and I loved to help her in the kitchen. My first job was to separate the eggs for her. Then I'd whip up the whites into thick, billowy mounds. Finally, she would start heating the griddle and would test it by flicking water on it, and when little beads danced across the hot metal, it was time to begin. Standing at her post at the stove, she flipped batch after batch until our big hungry family was fed."

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large eggs, separated
1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons melted butter, plus more butter for serving
1 cup cake flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
vegetable oil
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Lightly grease a cast-iron pan or griddle with vegetable oil, wiping off excess with a paper towel. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks into the buttermilk, then whisk in the butter. In another bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then sift these dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture. Lightly whisk together until the batter is just mixed (a few lumps won't hurt). In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with a whisk until soft peaks form. Use a rubber spatula to fold them into the batter. Don't overwork the batter; keep it light and fluffy.
  • Heat the griddle over medium-high heat until hot. (To test, flick a bit of water onto the pan; it'll bead up and dance if it's hot enough.) Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle. Cook until little holes appear on the surface and the cooked side of the pancake is golden brown (lift the edge to check), about 1 minute on each side. Don't worry if the first one or two don't turn out well-that's normal. Continue making pancakes, regreasing the pan as needed. Stack pancakes on a plate, slather generously with butter, and pour on a few good glugs of real maple syrup. Makes 4 batches of 3 pancakes (4" in diameter).

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon butter

Steps:

  • Beat eggs in a large bowl until smooth. Add milk, flour, sugar, vanilla extract, nutmeg, and salt; whisk until just combined. Stir in 1/2 cup melted butter until batter is very thin and slightly lumpy.

Tips:

  • Use fresh buttermilk. Fresh buttermilk will give your pancakes a light and fluffy texture. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. Cooking the pancakes over medium heat will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping the pancakes too often will make them dry and tough. Flip them only once, when bubbles start to form around the edges.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately. Pancakes are best served immediately, while they're still warm and fluffy.

Conclusion:

Swedish buttermilk pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast dish. They're perfect for a lazy weekend morning or a special occasion brunch. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect Swedish buttermilk pancakes that your family and friends will love.
