christmas breakfast

on fake christmas morning i really wanted to make my dad's favorite recipe of swedish pancakes. we normally have crepes with strawberry's back home, but i don't have a crepe maker and actually prefer the swedish pancakes to crepes anyway.

since it was christmas we obviously used some food coloring to make red and green pancakes (or really we used a ton to get it to be more red than pink). and perhaps one of us set theirs up to alternate red pancakes with green pancakes (with a layer of butter/powdered sugar or homemade ollaliaberry jelly/powdered sugar on each pancake).

here is the recipe for swedish pancakes (which i am currently getting via gchat from my sister who's had it memorized since we were little):

1.5 cups milk
3/4 cups flour
3 eggs
2 TBL sugar
1 tsp salt

beat milk and eggs together until they are a lemon yellow color (not with an electic beater or it will get foamy and you'll have to wait an hour to cook them) (yep, this happened to me)
sift the flour, sugar and salt and then mix into the milk and eggs until just combined.
pour one ladle of batter onto a buttered skillet.
flip when they look cooked to cook both sides.
keep them warm while cooking all of them.
serve with butter, powdered sugar, and jelly. or syrup if you're like my annoying little brother who never did it right...
also goes really well with apple juice as your drink.
preferably out of a plastic cup.

merry christmas!!
