Delightfully thin, tender, and perfect for rolling or folding, Norwegian Pancakes are a Scandinavian classic that bring a touch of European charm to your breakfast table. These delicate crepes boast a subtle sweetness, thanks to a blend of granulated sugar and vanilla extract, and their ultra-smooth batter, made with rich whole milk and melted butter, guarantees a golden, lightly crisp finish. With just 10 minutes of prep time, these pancakes are quick to whip up and versatile in flavor, making them ideal for savoring with jam, fresh fruit, powdered sugar, or even a dollop of sour cream. Simple yet indulgent, this recipe is perfect for a cozy brunch or as a creative dessert option when hosting family and friends.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, whisking thoroughly to avoid any lumps. The batter should be thin and smooth.
Whisk in the melted butter to the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with a small amount of butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, tilting the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom turns lightly golden brown.
Flip the pancake gently using a spatula and cook the other side for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until lightly golden.
Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
Serve the Norwegian pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as jam, fresh fruits, powdered sugar, or sour cream.
