Introduction
Who doesn’t love pancakes? They are a classic breakfast dish that brings joy to people of all ages. As a Swedish chef, I take pride in creating delicious and fluffy Swedish pancakes that are sure to impress.
The Story Behind the Recipe
One day, while I was working in a small café in Stockholm, a customer asked me if I could make pancakes that were thinner and lighter than the traditional American ones. Being the adventurous chef that I am, I decided to experiment and came up with the perfect recipe for Swedish pancakes. Since then, these pancakes have become a staple in my own kitchen and are loved by everyone who tries them.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups milk
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour a small amount of batter onto the skillet and swirl it around to create a thin, round pancake.
- Cook the pancake for about 2 minutes, or until the edges start to crisp up and the bottom is golden brown.
- Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown.
- Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and keep warm.
- Repeat steps 5-8 with the remaining batter, adding more butter or cooking spray to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the Swedish pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or maple syrup.
