Delightfully thin and irresistibly delicate, Swedish Pancakes are a classic Scandinavian treat perfect for breakfast or brunch. These crepe-like pancakes are made with a simple batter of all-purpose flour, milk, eggs, and melted butter, resulting in an ultra-smooth, slightly runny consistency that cooks up golden and airy. Unlike traditional pancakes, Swedish Pancakes are cooked thin and soft, making them ideal for rolling or folding around your favorite toppings. Serve them warm topped with lingonberry jam, a dusting of powdered sugar, or fresh fruit for an authentic flavor experience. With just 10 minutes of prep time, these easy and elegant pancakes are a surefire way to elevate your mornings.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
Gradually pour in the milk, whisking as you go to avoid lumps. Once the mixture is smooth, set aside.
Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl and add them to the batter. Stir until fully incorporated.
Stir in the melted butter and whisk until the batter is smooth and slightly runny.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer.
Cook the pancake for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to crisp and the bottom turns golden brown.
Using a spatula, carefully flip the pancake and cook the other side for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between pancakes.
Serve Swedish Pancakes warm with your choice of toppings, such as lingonberry jam, whipped cream, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit.
