SWEDISH PANCAKES

I LOVE eating breakfast foods for dinner…actually, I love eating breakfast foods every meal of the day!

I love eggs, cereal, waffles, french toast, donuts, and pastries. Although I love many breakfast food selections, my all-time favorite: Swedish Pancakes.

My dad used to makes these Swedish Pancakes for me every Saturday morning. I now carry on the tradition and make these frequently for my family.

I often describe Swedish pancakes as thicker and sweeter crepes. Whenever I cook these Swedish Pancakes for others, they ALWAYS ask for the recipe. Enjoy!

HOW TO MAKE SWEDISH PANCAKES:

Gather all your ingredients!

  • 1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 c milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 Tbsp melted butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

Once you have your ingredients ready, it’s time to start making these easy swedish pancakes!

Mix flour, baking powder, and salt and then stir in remaining ingredients.

Beat until smooth (hand beater works best) but if you want to muscle it, go for it!

Lightly butter or spray a 6-8 inch skillet and pour 1/4 c of batter onto butter skillet on medium heat and immediately rotate skillet until a thin film of batter covers the bottom.

When most of the bubbles have popped, turn with spatula and cook until light brown.

Fill with maple syrup and peaches (delicious!) and roll up and sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar.

Swedish pancakes are a favorite here. We use Lund's mix. Mr. Lund was local here in Denver.
