Lefse

This is my favorite lefse recipe. When I make this I think of who made these. She is not with us any more so this is real special to me. The way most Norwegians in Iowa/Minnisota eat this is with butter and sugar, also with butter and jelly. Hope you enjoy your Lefse. The time does not include making mashed potatoes. Show more
