Introduction

Let me start by saying that pancakes are a staple in Swedish cuisine. We take our pancakes very seriously, and I am excited to share with you my secret Swedish pancake recipe.

When I was a young chef, I had the opportunity to work at a famous pancake house in Stockholm. It was there that I learned the art of making the perfect pancake. The secret to a good pancake lies in the batter. You want a batter that is light, fluffy, and full of flavor.

I have tailored this recipe to be easy for all home chefs to recreate. You will need simple ingredients that can be found in any pantry. The result will be a stack of melt-in-your-mouth pancakes that will leave you craving for more.

Are you ready to embark on this delightful pancake adventure? Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter.

3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or cooking spray to the pan.

5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another minute or until golden brown.

6. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or cooking spray as needed.

7. Serve the pancakes hot with your favorite toppings. Swedish pancakes are traditionally served with lingonberry jam and a dusting of powdered sugar. Enjoy!
