Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 large russet potatoes, scrubbed
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into 1/2" pieces
1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more

Steps:

  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 400°. Prick potatoes all over with a fork and bake directly on the rack until yielding when pressed, about 1 hour. When cool enough to handle, scoop flesh into a large bowl; discard skins (or nibble on them with butter and salt- we won't judge). Mash potato with a fork until only a few lumps remain. Let cool.
  • Mix in cream, butter, salt, and 1 1/4 cups flour with a fork until a shaggy ball forms. Turn out on a lightly floured surface and knead, working in more flour a tablespoonful at a time, until dough is smooth, elastic, and soft, about 3 minutes. Cover loosely and let rest 10 minutes. Divide dough into 12 portions.
  • Heat a dry griddle or large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium heat. Working with 1 portion at a time and keeping others covered, roll out dough on a floured surface as thinly as possible to make an irregular 8"-diameter round (perfection is overrated). Cook until dough looks dry and is browned in spots, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer lefse to a wire rack; let cool.
  • DO AHEAD: Lefse can be made 2 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature.

I'm a professional chef and I've been making lefse for years. I've tried many different recipes, but this one is by far the best. The dough is easy to work with and the lefse turns out light and fluffy every time. I highly recommend this recipe.

I'm a Norwegian-American and lefse is a staple in our family. My mom makes it every Christmas and it's always a huge hit. I've never tried making it myself, but I'm thinking about giving it a try this year. This recipe looks like a good place to star

I'm allergic to potatoes, so I can't eat traditional lefse. I was so excited to find this recipe because it uses rice flour instead of potato flour. I made it last night and it was delicious! I was so happy to finally be able to enjoy lefse.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times and it's always delicious. I love that it's so versatile. I've served it with butter and sugar, with smoked salmon and cream cheese, and even with Nutella. It's always a hit.

I've made lefse several times and it always turns out great. I think the key is to use a good quality potato. I also like to add a little bit of butter to the dough, which makes it more flavorful. YUM!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my lefse turned out too dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Has anyone else had this problem?

My grandma used to make lefse every Christmas. It's one of my favorite memories from childhood. I can still remember the smell of the lefse baking in the oven and the taste of the warm, buttery bread. I'm going to have to try making it myself this ye

Lefse is a delicious and versatile flatbread that can be enjoyed in many different ways. I love to serve it with butter, sugar, and cinnamon, but it can also be used as a wrap for sandwiches or filled with your favorite fillings.
