    ★ Ingredients You'll Need ★

    Good news: You don't need a long list of ingredients to make homemade crepes.

    Here's everything you'll need to make Swedish style crepes topped with lingonberry butter!

    Lingonberry Swedish Crepes Ingredients

    Crepe Batter

    • Flour, milk, eggs, egg (non-alcoholic beer is fine!), sugar, salt and butter.
    • Butter to grease the pan for easy flipping.

    Toppings

    • Butter, lingonberry jam, powdered sugar

    To make your crepes Swedish style, you'll want to use butter and lingonberry jam. However, you can top these crepes with anything you'd like!

    You can also stuff or top these delicious crepes with fresh fruit — strawberries, bananas and Nutella are a favorite combo of ours. Raspberries are delicious too!

    ★ How to Make this Recipe ★

    Here are the basic steps involved. See below for the full recipe.

    iHop Copycat Swedish Crepe Ingredients
    1. Blend flour, milk, sugar, salt and beer to form the batter.
    2. Pour batter into a heated and grease pan.
    3. Flip to cook both sides.
    4. Move crepe to a plate and fold or roll.
    5. Top with lingonberry jam and butter or toppings of your choice.

    That's it! Pretty simple.

    ★ Tips & FAQs ★

    Homemade crepe batter is better with beer!

    That's the secret here. The beer!

    Beer adds some extra flavor to these crepes making them amazingly delicious. However, it's not required.

    If you don't have beer or prefer not to use beer, you can just add extra milk instead. You can also use nonalcoholic beer if you'd like.

    Homemade crepes are actually easy to make!

    Slightly more difficult than pancakes, I'd say. Once you master the flip, you're good to go.

    Check out the video below the recipe. It shows how to make these, step by step.

    What do Lingonberries taste like and where do they come from?

    Lingonberries are a small red berry that have a tart flavor. Add a little sugar and this become a delicious sweet-tart jam with a wonderful texture!

    Since the berries themselves are so small, the jam usually features whole lingonberries within the jam which give you a nice little pops of flavor as you chew them.

    Lingonberries are native to Sweeden so funny enough you can find jars and jars of lingonberry jam at Ikea! You can also find this Swedish jam at many grocery stores now too as it has gained popularity over the last 10 years or so.

    A hearty amount of butter is best.

    Butter makes everything better and this is certainly the case with the Swedsih crepes. I like to add heavy portions of both lingonberry jam and butter. Many times I will mix the two together first and then apply the butter-jam mixture to the top of the crepes. The creamy/saltiness of the butter really brings out all the best qualities of the lingonberry jam and makes these crepes melt in your mouth.

    So, my point? Don't skimp on the butter! Or you'll really be missing out on the maximum flavor of these crepes.

    You'll want to use a flat skillet, frying pan or crepe pan.

    The key here is something flat. And round.

    You'll want the pan to be pretty large so the crepe batter has room to spread out nice and thin. 10" to 12" is an ideal size.

    Non-stick works best. Cast iron is not ideal.

    Instructions

    • Make batter. Mix ingredients in a bowl using a hand mixer or whisk to eliminate lumps.
    • Add batter to pan. Pour about ¾ cup batter into the center of generously oiled/buttered, pre-heated, flat and round, skillet or crepe pan, over medium heat. There should be just enough batter to cover the entire pan in a thin layer.
      Help the batter spread out evenly by rotating the skillet in a circular motion.
    • Cook each side. Cook crepe batter for 2-3 mins or until crepe is dry on top then flip.
      To flip, loosen first by giving the pan a shake to free the crepe from the pan, then slide it off the edge a little, onto a spatula (or I use my hand but it is HOT) and then flip to cook the other side.
      Heat the second side for just 30 seconds then slide the crepe onto a plate and fold in half then in half again.
    • Add toppings. Top with whipped butter, lingonberry jam and a sprinkle of powdered sugar if desired.

    Notes

    • If you want to have a little fun, try a crepe flip! Grease your pan heavily with butter before adding batter, add batter then once it's cooked enough to loose from the pan, give the while pan a little shake to make sure it's fully loosened from the pan and with the flick of your wrist, give it a flip!
    • Nonalcoholic beer can be used or eliminate altogether if preferred. Its purpose is to add extra flavor.
