Swedish Pancakes...A Geddes Family Tradition


Swedish Pancakes
(Crepes ala Elizabeth)

8 Eggs
4 C. Milk
2 C. Flour
1 Tbsp. Oil

When making "sweet" crepes I add:
2 Tbsp. Sugar
1 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 tsp. Vanilla

Make a volcano out of the flour, add milk and blend well. Add eggs and any additional ingredients. Heat cast iron skillet, melt butter in pan. Pour 1/2 C. batter in and swirl around until it reaches the edges. Cook till set and flip. Cook an additional 15-20 seconds on 2nd side. Remove to plate. Fill and Top as desired.
My favorite is vanilla yogurt and cinnamon sugar. Topped with strawberry sauce and whipped cream.
(My childhood Saturday mornings alternated between these, Grits and Eggs and Aunt Vi's Buttermilk Pancakes. These are the most requested in my family bar none!)
