Swedish Pancakes

Handed down from Annie Kleerup, Margie’s great-grandmother, who made them over an open fire at family picnics.

Ingredients:

  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 c flour
  • 1 c milk
  • 3/4 Tab salt
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cube butter

Directions:

  1. Ask Dad.

And Dad says:

  1. Melt the butter in 12 inch frying pan.
  2. Let it cool.
  3. Mix egg and milk with electric beater.  Do not over beat.
  4. Put flour, sugar, salt in sifter.
  5. Sift into egg/milk mixture a little at a time while beating with mixer.
  6. Add melted butter.
  7. Squeegee the pan with a rubber scraper.
  8. Heat the pan.
  9. Ladle 1/3 of the mixture into pan.
  10. Tilt the pan so the mixture goes all the way to the edge to form a full pancake.
  11. Cook until slightly brown.
  12. Run a metal spatula around the edge and  under the edge of the pancake.
  13. With the spatula all the  way under the pancake, flip it (without breaking it.)
  14. When  slightly browned, fold into quarters and serve.
  15. Serve with your choice:  Butter/sugar, fresh strawberries, peanut butter, syrup, etc.

Serves:  Makes 3 using a 12 inch pan.
