SWEDISH PANCAKES WITH LINGONBERRY BUTTER



Swedish Pancakes With Lingonberry Butter image

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!

Time 30m

Yield 15 pancakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups instant flour (see note)
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 1/2 cups club soda
9 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 jumbo eggs
2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
to avoid a lengthy resting period we used instant flour (Wondra)

Steps:

  • MAKE BATTER Combine flour, sugar, and salt in large bowl. Slowly whisk half-and-half, club soda, 4 tablespoons butter, eggs, and yolks into flour mixture until smooth.
  • COOK PANCAKES Brush surface and sides of 10-inch nonstick skillet with 1 teaspoon butter and heat over medium heat. When butter stops sizzling, pour 1/3 cup batter into skillet, tilting pan to evenly coat bottom with batter. Cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to plate and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Repeat with remaining butter and remaining batter. Serve.
  • NOTE: I combined 3 tablespoons lingonberry jam with 1 stick soften butter and served in on top of the hot pancakes, that I rolled into crepes.
  • MAKE AHEAD: Swedish pancakes can be refrigerated for 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month. Layer cooled pancakes between parchment paper, wrap in plastic, and transfer to zipper-lock bag. To serve, microwave stack of 3 pancakes on 50 percent power until heated through, 10 to 20 seconds.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh lingonberries or frozen lingonberries that haven't been sweetened are the best options for this recipe. Fresh eggs and milk will also help to create a delicious crepe batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the crepes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or crepe pan. This will help to prevent the crepes from sticking and make them easier to flip.
  • Cook the crepes on medium heat. Cooking the crepes on too high of heat will cause them to brown too quickly and not cook through in the center.
  • Flip the crepes when the edges start to brown. Use a spatula to carefully flip the crepes when the edges start to brown and the bottom is golden brown.
  • Serve the crepes immediately. Crepes are best served immediately, while they are still warm. You can fill them with your favorite toppings, such as lingonberry jam, whipped cream, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Crepes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect crepes every time. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try.
