Re: OT -Ray from Thunder Bay Finnish Pancakes

[Guest guest]

Hey there,

I don't really have a recipe for the Finnish pancakes I make, I usually just

throw them together. I learned from watching my grandmother, her sister,

and my aunt - my mom can't make them to save her soul. I started making

them and then adapted them to my liking.

On Sunday after taking my Fosamax I methodically made the pancakes but

actually measured and came up with this:

2 cups of flour - I substitute some whole wheat in here, sometimes add wheat

germ, or oat bran

1/2 tsp of salt

1tblsp baking powder

2tblsp sugar

Whisk together dry ingredients.

Add:

6 eggs

3tblsp melted butter

3 cups soy milk - (you could use regular milk)

1tsp vanilla (opt)

Whisk together until smooth, consistency of thick cream. This can be mixed

ahead of time and refrigerated up to overnight.

Fry in a medium/hot pan with a good oil until golden brown on each side.

I usually make these the size of the pan 8 -10 inches across.

These are served either flat or rolled with syrup or I make a quick sauce

with melted butter, brown sugar and banana slices. Enjoy.

Hope to see many of you in Denver.

Ray

This recipe is very similar to the Swedish pancakes we make. The main difference is we roll them up with ligonberries or grape jelly (for the kids) on the inside and then top with powdered sugar. They are very good.
