Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then mix them with the milk until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to create a smooth batter. Ensure there are no lumps.
Melt the butter in a microwave or small saucepan, then whisk it into the batter.
Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the ingredients to fully combine and the gluten to relax.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, tilting and swirling it quickly to coat the bottom in a thin, even layer.
Cook the pancake for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown. Flip it gently with a spatula and cook the other side for 1 minute.
Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
Serve the Scandinavian pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as jam, powdered sugar, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
