SWISS PANCAKES

Steps:

• Pour all batter ingredients into a blender and blend for 1 minute or until the batter is smooth, stopping blender and scraping down sides if necessary. (Alternately, you can blend all ingredients using a mixer or hand held immersion blender.).
• For best results, refrigerate batter for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
• Lightly grease a non-stick pan with sloped edges. Heat pan to medium. Pour into the pan approximately a scant 1/3 cup of batter and swirl the batter to distribute evenly. Cook for about 2 minutes or until the top of the pancake starts to form little bubbles and the bottom of the pancake is light brown with "specks".
• Flip the pancake over carefully and continue to cook for another 45 seconds to 1 minute. Be careful not to overcook.
• Carefully remove pancake to warming dish and continue cooking the pancakes as in Step #3. Grease pan lightly as needed.
• For filling: you can leave the pancakes plain as my inlaws do or we like to add strawberries cut up and mixed in with some cream cheese; the top garnished with toasted slivered almonds. I've also used homemade applesauce and fresh peaches, too. Use your imagination for pancake fillings. Roll up, bringing both sides of pancake to center.
• Serve warmed maple syrup (or warmed jam or jelly) on side if desired. Sprinkle top of pancake with powdered sugar for presentation.

CHOLERMüS - SWISS PANCAKE

Steps:

• 1. BATTER: Combine eggs, salt, milk, cottage cheese, flour, honey, and oil in food processor or blender. Process until smooth.
• 2. Heat butter in a 9- or 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour one-fourth of batter about a half-inch thick into bottom of pan. Cover and cook until top loses its gloss, then flip over and cook the other side until lightly browned.
• 3. Carefully remove to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with rest of batter until 4 large pancakes are cooked. These pancakes will be slightly fragile, so use care not to tear them.
• 4. FILLING: Combine apples, butter, honey, and cinnamon in a small pan. Heat over medium heat until apples are cooked through.
• 5. ASSEMBLY: Place one pancake on serving dish. Top with half of filling. Place second pancake over top of filling. Dust with confectioner's sugar. Prepare second pancake the same way. Each stacked cake serves 2 people. Cut and serve accordingly.

AUTHENTIC SWEDISH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a bowl with an electric mixer until thick and lemon-colored, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in milk.
• Sift flour, sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Add to egg mixture; mix until batter is smooth.
• Grease a griddle with butter; heat over medium heat. Drop tablespoonfuls of batter on the griddle; spread to make thin pancakes. Cook until light brown on bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until second side is light brown, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.

ALPINE OMELET (CHOLERMUES)

Steps:

• 1. In a small bowl, soak fruit bits with water and lemon juice for several hours or overnight. Drain fruit and reserve liquid.
• 2. In a small pan, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add cornstarch, stirring quickly. Stir in syrup or honey and the water from the fruit. Stir until mixture is thick and smooth. Add fruit and simmer on low heat while making the omelet.
• 3. In a large bowl, whip together flour, eggs, half-and-half, and nutmeg until frothy. Cover bowl with a towel and place in refrigerator for 15 minutes. Remove and whip mixture once more.
• 4. Turn heat to medium high under a large frying pan. Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and add egg mixture. Cover, turn heat to low, and cook for 7 to 8 minutes-until omelet is light brown on the bottom. 5. With a wooden spoon, break the omelet into bite-sized pieces and turn them over. Turn heat off and allow egg mixture to become firm on the bottom.
• 5. Serve immediately with stewed fruits.

• Blend eggs, milk, warm water, white sugar, flour, and salt together in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until well combined into a smooth batter.
• Stream the melted butter into the batter while continuing to beat.
• Heat a skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Coat the cooking surface with a thin layer of butter.
• Pour a thin layer of batter onto the prepared cooking surface; swirl the pan to assure even coverage.
• Cook the crepe until browned on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes; flip the crepe and continue cooking until the other side is browned. Serve immediately.
