I was intrigued when talking about breakfast one day with friends and when we mentioned that we love crepes they said that they love swedish pancakes, of course I had to make Dairy Free Swedish Pancakes. Hmmmmm, I had never had swedish pancakes. We love finding new breakfast recipes and so I knew we had to try them. Our friends said they were like a crepe, but a little thicker. I could do that!! For shizzle! 😉
I could have googled them, but sometimes I just want to cook and not sit around a computer so I gave them a whirl on my own. I love how crepes are thin and light, but I also love the airy Ebelskivers which use egg whites that are whisked into peaks. I decided to combine the two to create a fluffier crepe. Friends, these were so delicious. I’M SERIOUS. You must try them right away. I bet you can guess what Cade and Peys filled their pancakes with. Yup, Nutella. I was jealous and pouted for 5 seconds and then quickly used some amazing freezer jam from this summer. HA! Mine was fantabulous too!
What Are Swedish Pancakes?
Swedish pancakes are a breakfast food.
They are very similar to crepes, but have some differences.
The batter for Swedish pancakes is thinner than crepes.
Swedish pancakes are made in a pan with a raised lip around the edge.
This allows the thin batter to be sloshed around, evenly coating the pan surface without running over the edge.
Swedish pancakes are lighter, fluffier, sweeter and airier than crepes.
Can Swedish Pancakes Be Reheated?
Swedish pancakes can be reheated.
Stack the pancakes, separated with paper towels or wax paper.
Reheat in the microwave.
Are Swedish Pancakes Rolled?
Swedish pancakes can be filled and rolled like a crepe.
Or, Swedish pancakes can be eaten like a pancake with jam or syrup on top.

Hi,
Do you use unsweetened coconut milk since it calls for 2 Tablespoons of sugar? Should one use regular white sugar or is there a healthier alternative?
Sweet Basil
Hi Nika! You can use either sweetened or unsweetened coconut milk just depending on how sweet you want the pancakes to be. I used unsweetened because we usually top with syrup or something else sweet. You can use regular white sugar or an artificial sweetener. I supposed honey would work too, but I’ve never tried that.
Si
I have never thought of using coconut milk in a pancake recipe. I'm going to bookmark this! yum.
