Scandinavian Pancakes










These are so good! This recipe actually came from the Friend. They are a cross between German pancakes and crepes. They have more substance to them than crepes so you don't have to eat 10 of them to get full! I just cooked mine on my electric griddle and used a pizza cutter to cut them into strips so I could turn them easily.

Scandinavian Pancakes

4 eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
3/4 cup flour, sifted
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
Fruit jam, hazelnut spread, or powdered sugar to taste
1. Preheat a nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Beat the eggs and milk together until smooth. Add the dry ingredients, and stir in the butter or oil.

2. Pour 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan and turn the pan to coat the bottom evenly in a very thin layer of batter. (The pancake should be about 6 inches [15 cm] in diameter.) Cook the pancake until slight bubbles form. Lift the pancake to see if it is delicately browned. If so, turn the pancake over and lightly brown the other side.

3. Remove the pancake from the heat and spread it with toppings of your choice. Roll the pancake up and enjoy.

This is one of my all-time favorite breakfasts!! I haven't tried them as big as you make them- it looks delish. You are going to have to show me how you are able to flip them when they are so big- yum.mers!!!
