Lefse II
In anticipation of the turkey, my grandmother used to offer this as a pre-dinner snack paired with cheese. She would employ a sturdy cast iron griddle, lightly dusted with flour. Personally, I opt for a 1 1/2-inch wooden dowel to roll out the dough thinly and evenly.
Ingredients
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 6 tablespoons light corn syrup
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cardamom
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix by hand sour milk or buttermilk, corn syrup, sugar, soda, cardamom, and flour until mixture becomes a soft pliable dough.
- Divide the dough into 12 or so pieces. Roll out each piece until about 1/8 inch thick.
- Bake on a lightly floured griddle over very low heat for 12 to 15 minutes per side. Serve warm with your favorite cheese or jam.
