Blogging for us today is Kristie of Above the Clouds.  Kristie is a new blogger, but she has a lot to offer the craft world. 

Kristie’s newest obsession is clothes making, and I first found Kristie’s blog when she joined along in my Pattern Challenge.  Since then she’s made some adorable clothes that have got me all kinds of inspired!

Today she’s sharing with you her recipe for Swedish Pancakes, which would make a wonderful Mother’s Day Brunch.  I always love to order swedish pancakes when we go out to breakfast, but I have never tried making them myself!  They look absolutely delicious!  Thanks so much for sharing, Kristie!

Mother’s Day Brunch:  Swedish Pancakes by Above the Clouds

I’m so excited to be here on Come and See the Seitz!  My name is Kristie from Above the Clouds and I found Sarah through her Pattern Challenge.  She has inspired me with all her sewing projects, quilts and stylish clothes.  I love to sew and create and have recently become addicted to sewing clothes for my one year old daughter and myself.  Thanks Sarah for having me!  This is so fun. 

It’s time to celebrate Mom.  Why not do it with a delicious brunch with the whole family.  This recipe is a family favorite on my husband’s side and one that is asked for over and over. It’s like having desert for breakfast.  I’m going to share with you our family’s yummy recipe for Swedish Pancakes.

Ingredients:

  -6 eggs
  -1 1/2 cups flour
  -dash of salt
  -1 Tbsp sugar
  -2 1/2 cups milk
  -1 stick of butter (melted)

Directions:

1.  Beat eggs until lemon colored.

2.  Add flour, salt and sugar.

3.  Add milk IN THREE GROUPS. Batter will be very thin.

4.  Add melted butter.

5.  Let stand for 15 minutes.

6.  Pour 1/4 cup of batter into a hot skillet and tilt pan to thin out and make pancake shape.  When edges are set, flip pancake.

Makes APPROXIMATELY 30-35 pancakes. Serving size is about 3-4 per person or more for the hungry guys.

We like to scoop some fresh juicy strawberries and whip cream in side, roll them up and drizzle syrup on top.  I also like to eat them with just whip cream inside and syrup.  Yum!  

Be creative.  Fill them with your favorite fruit.  I originally had this with lingon berries which is more traditional, but a bit too tart for me. I’ve never tried it, but I bet scrambled eggs and ham would be delicious.

On this day, we had powdered sugar, bananas, chocolate chips, mixed berries (from frozen bag) and some fresh strawberries smashed with sugar.

Watch out! They’re so thin and scrumptious it ’s hard to stop eating them.

Enjoy and Happy Mother’s Day.
