Categories     Breakfast     Dessert

Time 2h35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup whole milk
6 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled, plus more for the pan)
½ teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
2 tablespoons lingonberry preserves
Pinch of salt
Lingonberry preserves

Steps:

  • Make the Pancake Batter: Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until completely smooth. Transfer to the refrigerator to rest for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
  • Meanwhile, make the Lingonberry Butter: Combine lingonberry preserves, butter and salt together in a small bowl with a fork. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat a 10 inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir the batter briefly to recombine. Brush skillet with melted butter. Pick the skillet up off of the burner and quickly add ¼ cup of batter. Immediately begin swirling the batter around the skillet so that it coats the bottom of the pan. Continue swirling until the batter is just set. Return skillet to the burner. Cook until the pancake is golden brown in spots on the bottom, about 30 seconds. Use a thin spatula to loosen the pancake, flip it over continue to cook on the other side for about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Cover with foil and transfer to oven to keep warm and repeat with remaining batter, wiping out skillet in between pancakes with paper towel as needed.
  • When you are ready to serve, top each warm pancake with lingonberry butter and fold into thirds. Serve topped with lingonberry preserves.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

For the Pancakes
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups milk
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons seltzer
2 tablespoons butter
For the Topping
1/2 cup of strawberry jam
2 tablespoons of water
Optional: Whipped Cream

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a blender , combine the flour, salt, milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract. Combine on high speed until completely incorporated and a thin batter has formed.
  • Let the pancake batter sit and rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Whisk in the seltzer and heat up your cast iron or non-stick pan to medium-high heat.
  • Add a little bit of the butter to the pan and spread it around with a silicone or pastry brush to completely coat the pan. Turn the heat down to medium heat.
  • Add enough batter to coat the bottom of the pan completely and swirl it around to completely coat. (The pancakes are very thin so don't pour in too much batter or it will make the pancakes thicker in texture.)
  • Cook for about one minute and then carefully flip with a soft spatula. You can also flip using the pan and a quick handle movement.
  • Cook for another 20 seconds on the second side. Remove from the pan and stack on a plate. You can stack the pancakes on top of each other as they cook. Add a little more butter to the pan before cooking each pancake.
  • Add the strawberry jam to a pan and whisk in the water. Heat the jam until it's hot and slightly thinned.
  • Fold the pancakes into triangles and top with the jam and whipped cream. You can also sprinkle powdered sugar on them if you wish.
  • Serve and enjoy!

SWEDISH PANCAKES



Swedish Pancakes image

Smaller and thinner than their American counterparts, Swedish pancakes are quite tender and comparable in texture to French crepes. If you don't have a Swedish pancake pan, cook the pancakes in a nonstick pan.

Yield Makes about sixty 3-inch pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 large eggs
2 cups milk
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Confectioners' sugar, for garnish (optional)
Fruit, such as raspberries, strawberries, or sliced melon, for garnish (optional)
Jam, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine eggs with 1/2 cup milk. Process until completely smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Stop the food processor and add flour. Process again until smooth and thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Add remaining milk, butter, granulated sugar, vanilla, and salt.
  • Heat Swedish pancake pan over medium. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of batter into each circle. Cook until the edges turn golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.

### - **Use fresh ingredients:** Fresh ingredients will give your pancakes the best flavor. Use room temperature ingredients for even baking. - **Don't overmix the batter:** Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. - **Let the batter rest:** Letting the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking will allow the gluten to relax, resulting in lighter, fluffier pancakes. - **Use a well-seasoned pan:** A well-seasoned pan will help prevent the pancakes from sticking. - **Cook the pancakes over medium heat:** Medium heat will help the pancakes cook through evenly without burning. - **Flip the pancakes only once:** Flipping the pancakes too often will make them tough. Flip the pancakes once, when the edges are dry and bubbles are forming on the surface. - **Serve the pancakes immediately:** Swedish pancakes are best served immediately, with your favorite toppings. ### Swedish pancakes (pannkakor) are delicious, versatile, and easy to make. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect Swedish pancakes every time. These pancakes are a great option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and they can be served with a variety of toppings, such as fruit, syrup, or whipped cream.
