Description

These Swedish Pancakes are buttery, tender, and have a perfectly delicate, lacy edge. Light yet satisfying, theyโ€™re a classic breakfast choice thatโ€™s simple to make and easy to love. Top with lingonberry or blueberry jam, yogurt, and whipped cream for the ultimate treat!


Ingredients

  • For the Pancakes:

    • 3 eggs

    • 1 1/2 cups whole milk (+ 1/4 cup, see notes)

    • 1 cup flour

    • 3 tablespoons melted butter

    • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

    • 1/2 teaspoon salt

ย 

  • For Topping:

    • Lingonberry or blueberry jam

    • Plain yogurt

    • Whipped cream (or straight heavy whipping cream)


Instructions

  1. Make the Pancake Batter:

    • Blend the eggs and milk until doubled in size, about 30 seconds.

    • Add flour, melted butter, sugar, and salt; blend for another 15-20 seconds until smooth and combined.

  2. Preheat the Pan:

    • Heat a nonstick or well-seasoned cast iron pan over medium heat.

    • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, then tilt the pan immediately to spread the batter evenly, creating a thin, lacy edge.

  3. Cook the Pancakes:

    • Let the pancake cook for about 1 minute until golden brown, then flip and cook the back side for 15-30 seconds.

    • Adjust the doneness to your liking; I prefer the front side golden and the back side pale.

  4. Serve:

    • Serve the pancakes flat, folded, or rolled. Top with your choice of maple syrup, whipped cream, fruit, or jam.

    • My favorite way is folding them and serving with lingonberry jam and yogurt!


Notes

  • If you want extra thin pancakes, add the additional 1/4 cup of milk to the batter.

  • For the toppings, you can swap lingonberry jam with other fruit jams or even fresh berries.
