Creating Swedish Pancakes is a delightful way to start your morning, and with this easy recipe, you’ll be able to whip them up in no time. Hereโs how to make these thin, delicate pancakes that are sure to become a favorite at your breakfast table:
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/4 cup sugar (optional, for a slightly sweet pancake)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, crack open the eggs.
- Add the salt and whisk together until the salt is dissolved into the eggs.
-
-
Add Dry Ingredients:
- Sprinkle in the flour gradually while continuing to whisk. This helps prevent lumps from forming.
-
Incorporate Wet Ingredients:
- Pour in the milk gradually, whisking continuously to ensure a smooth batter.
- Add melted butter (cooled slightly) to the batter and whisk until well combined.
- Optionally, stir in sugar if you prefer a slightly sweet pancake.
-
Rest the Batter:
- Let the batter rest for about 10-15 minutes. This allows the flour to hydrate and results in a smoother batter consistency.
-
Cooking the Pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with butter or oil.
- Pour a small amount of batter (about 1/4 cup) into the center of the skillet.
- Immediately tilt and rotate the skillet to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer.
- Cook the pancake for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
-
Flip and Finish:
- Carefully flip the pancake using a spatula.
- Cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Remove the pancake from the skillet and place it on a plate.
-
Repeat:
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet lightly as needed between pancakes.
-
Serve:
- Serve the Swedish Pancakes warm.
- They can be enjoyed with various toppings such as fresh berries, whipped cream, jam, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
