SWEDISH PANCAKES (PANNKAKOR)
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a blender , combine the flour, salt, milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract. Combine on high speed until completely incorporated and a thin batter has formed.
- Let the pancake batter sit and rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Whisk in the seltzer and heat up your cast iron or non-stick pan to medium-high heat.
- Add a little bit of the butter to the pan and spread it around with a silicone or pastry brush to completely coat the pan. Turn the heat down to medium heat.
- Add enough batter to coat the bottom of the pan completely and swirl it around to completely coat. (The pancakes are very thin so don't pour in too much batter or it will make the pancakes thicker in texture.)
- Cook for about one minute and then carefully flip with a soft spatula. You can also flip using the pan and a quick handle movement.
- Cook for another 20 seconds on the second side. Remove from the pan and stack on a plate. You can stack the pancakes on top of each other as they cook. Add a little more butter to the pan before cooking each pancake.
- Add the strawberry jam to a pan and whisk in the water. Heat the jam until it's hot and slightly thinned.
- Fold the pancakes into triangles and top with the jam and whipped cream. You can also sprinkle powdered sugar on them if you wish.
- Serve and enjoy!

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.

EASY SWEDISH PANCAKES

SWEDISH PANCAKES WITH LINGONBERRY BUTTER
Delicate, buttery, tangy, delicious... are just a few adjectives that describes these Swedish Pancake/crepes from Cook's Country Magazine (October 2010). The secret lies in using instant flour and club soda. Lingonberries are the authentic jam to use for this recipe, and they have become more readily available in supermarkets. I loved this recipe, as they reminded me of the Swedish pancakes that I had at an International House of Pancakes, years ago. You can serve these with plain jam, but I decided to add the jam to whipped butter which gave these extra richness-- with a few extra calories. Once in a while, just live it up!
