This is my first attempt at cooking this delicious Swedish dish so please check out my video here on YouTube!
The challenge is to cook these lovely World dishes for the first time and then share my experiences with you! Ā Even the bits that went wrong!


Pizza Ovens
Cast Iron Pan dishes are perfect for cooking in these high-heat pizza ovens.
These Pizza overs are so versatile and there is no limit to the many dishes you can create in them using a cast-iron pan. Ā These pans are very handy as they can withstand the strong powerful heat from these ovens.
I use the Ooni Cast Iron Skillet Pan for the practical reason that it has a detachable handle that can be attached to either side using the handle grips on the pan. This gives me the option to close the pizza oven door as there is no protruding handle.
The pan is also a good size for the dishes I cook – check the pan out on this link: https://amzn.to/3rTfl8s.
The recipe I used:
- I used 350ml but would recommend using more milk – so approx 450ml to 600ml Ā – the consistency is your choice.
- 260 g sieved flour
- 10 g of salt
- 4 eggs whisked
- 150g cooked bacon
Warm the pan up in the oven for a few minutes first. Ā Add the cooked bacon to the pan.
Add the whisked eggs to the sieved flour and stir in. Ā Then add 1/3 of milk and whisk, adding more to the batter, whisk it in until you have a non-lumpy batter.
COOK THE BACON BEFORE YOU ADD THE PANCAKE BATTER
Pour the pancake batter over the bacon in the pan. Ā Cook in the oven for about 20-30 minutes at 200c until the top of the pancake is browned. Ā Rotate every 5 minutes.
I used smoked bacon and it was very delicious in this dish.
Add Lingonberries for a truly authentic Swedish taste!
