Norwegian Pancakes - Pannekaken
"I'm posting this for ZWT III. I found this gem on Allrecipes.com. It was submitted by in da wings who states: "My Norwegian grandmother made this for us as a treat, and it continues to be a favorite my mother makes for my kids. Very easy and versatile. Serve rolled like a crepe with syrup or jam. Can also be a dessert stuffed with a sweetened cream cheese and lingon berry mixture.""

These were great! Thin and tasty, not ivery sweet, so would suit with sweet toppings and savory fillings! Really good recipe! -
*Reviewed for Zaar World Tour 3* These were very easy to make and cooked up quickly. I was a little hesitant when I made the mix up as it was very runny (but I also have to say that I used gluten-free flour). They cooked well and I didn't need to make any changes. We thought these were more of a very plain crepe than a pancake but they were yummy rolled with strawberry jam. Photo to be posted -
I have given this a 4 star rating for the taste.. but I needed to add another 1/2 cup of milk to the mix to make it thinner because the first pancake was stiff and too thick to move much when I tilted the pan to spread it. That one was too heavy in texture, but the remaining ones, made with the extra addition of milk were great, light and fluffy. Making these was super easy. I loved that you could whizz this up in the food processor. Please see my rating system: 4 excellent stars for great tasting pancakes once I got the mixture a little thinner. Thanks! -
This is the first crepe recipe that I have ever had work for me. This is tops! ZWT3

I live in beautiful San Diego where there's never nothin to do. We almost never have days where you can't get outdoors. For fun I love to read, cook, take road trips with my grandson, whom I raise. Take long walks along the beach, bays and lakes. My live in grandson is 12 and the light of my life. I've been teaching him to fish, or should I say I'm exposing him to lake fishing, the people we meet along the way are teaching him while I read and watch. He's dying to go ocean fishing, that one makes me a bit more nervous, but we'll start that soon, probably from piers to start. Nick's only one of my grandchildren though, I have a total of 13, three live in Kansas, the land of Oz. The last time I visited them, it was Christmas time and when I stepped off the plane, the cold air took my breath away and standing there waiting for me in a short-sleeved T-shirt, was my son-in-law. Needless, to say, I spent many days there staying indoors praying for the day I could get back to sunny California -- I never had to endure snow the whole time, thank God! Twenty degrees daily was way out of my comfort zone by a very large margin. There truly is no place like home. I have 8 other grandchildren that are fortunate enought to live in San Diego too. We spend weekends doing things together such as taking in the zoo, wild animal park, Sea World, Knotts Soak City water park (summer), museums, fishing, picknicking and just hanging out. They all love to help grandma cook in the kitchen. I have many cookbooks and can read them like I'd read a novel. My passions are my family, my two boston terriers, Tuffy and Oreo, and gardening, cooking and reading -- oh yeah, I'm totally addicted to Zaar. I don't really have many pet peeves, but a biggie is mean, obnoxious people and those who think they know it all, and liars, I can pick out a deceitful person it an instant. If you can't trust someone, then nothings worth salvaging in the relationship. I hate those who disrespect the environment (no I'm not a tree hugger) but I do hate to see people litter and fail to do simple things such as picking up after themselves in the outdoors such as parks and beaches, and how easy is it to recycle? It's really not too difficult to make an impact on the environment if everybody takes responsibility for their "trash."
