Hi all– Mom came for breakfast last week and we sat down to these pretty pancakes. We spent the morning talking through every little thing. And the pancakes were thin and tender and just sweet enough under that pile of berries and cream. Great way to start the day.
Got the recipe from Mollie’s blog– The Frugal Hausfrau. Mollie is forever posting recipes i can’t wait to try! Love her sense of humor and straightforward helpful instructions and the wide variety of recipes she sends out.
SWEDISH PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY SAUCE
Blueberry Sauce:
1 1/2 cups blueberries
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tab. sugar
1 tsp. cornstarch
1/4 cup water
Whipped Cream:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tsp. powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla instant pudding mix
Pancakes:
1 1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 cups buttermilk or whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 eggs
butter for the grill.
To make the blueberry compote, mix together the 2 tab. sugar and the cornstarch in a saucepan until there are no cornstarch lumps. Then set the pan on medium-high heat and add the orange juice, water and 1/2 cup of the blueberries. Cook stirring 3 or 4 minutes until the blueberries start to pop and he mixtures thickens. Stir in the remaining blueberries and cook a minute more.
Whip the cream, powdered sugar and instant vanilla pudding mix (to set the whipped cream) with an electric mixer (the whisk attachment works best) until it is stiff and creamy. Set it in the fridge until you are ready to eat.
For the pancakes, stir together the flour and salt. Then mix in the milk, cream and eggs until it is all blended. Melt a tsp. of butter on the grill and then cook the pancakes over medium heat about 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they are lightly browned. Set them on a baking sheet as you finish each one and put them in the oven on the lowest temperature to keep them warm. Makes about 10 large thin. pancakes.
To serve them, fold 2 pancakes into fourths on each plate, and top with blueberry compote and whipped cream. So pretty!
Thanks Mom for always having time to drop by for a meal and a talk. You’re the best!

Hi Shamira! Yep, my mom is so fun to hang out with –especially for an 86 year old! Loved your Indian restaurant post– looked like a place we would love! thanks. xox
Oh, lovely golden brown and gorgeous berries. This looks delicious, Rhonda. Hugs.
Hi Teagan! thanks– so fun to hear from you… xo
Those pancakes look so amazing! 😊
Thanks so much! Your post of the Royal Botanical Garden is really lovely! xox
Thank you! 😊
They sound wonderful, Rhonda! What a treat!
Hey Daisy– thanks. Have you decided what to do with your periwinkle quilt squares?? so pretty. xox
I think I’m going to make a picnic quilt… I keep changing my mind… Have’t had any time o work on it for a while. Maybe next week. 😊
With family coming to visit– for me, quilting takes the back seat. Hope you’re feeling OK by now Daisy!! xo
Wow! Yummy – absolutely love pancakes, I was just thinking of making some, maybe I should make these! 😀
HI Kreso– we love pancakes here too. I make them most often on Sunday evenings!! fun to hear from you!
Great Recipe, and so good to reconnect with you. 🙂 Hope all is going well, Rhonda. I’m back from my blogging break. Blessings to your mom!!!

HI Debbie Hooray! I’m off to see what you’ve posted!! Glad you’re back! xox
Aww, thanks Rhonda! Hugs!
These look beautiful and yummy, Rhonda! Isn’t it fun making wonderful breakfast for family? Blessings to you xoxo
Hi Mary– agree. I like big breakfasts with family– feels festive (after my usually bowl of cereal or oatmeal!) Are you counting down days?? some schools here are out already! xox
Hi Rhonda, how is your week going? Yes I am counting down the days. I taught a dogs vs cats lesson the other day…the kids loved it! I chose the cat and made a mini poster trying to persuade them that cats are better. They loved it and didn’t even know it was good persuasive writing practice! I need the break but I will miss the kids. I’m sure you understand this. Blessings
Sweet! 💖 (in every way!)
thanks Carol– Loved your May reading list– and especially your Children’s summer reading post. I’ve gotten so many great recommendations from you! thanks thanks. xox
Ronda, this looks incredible! What a great way to show the love in your heart by feeding them something so delicious. Yum!!
I so agree with you Lisa– I think feeding people is a great way to love them! xox
Looks incredibly delicious, Rhonda! 🙂 And thank you Mollie too 🙂 From time to time I would love to have pancakes, but this idea does not excite anyone at home 😀 😀 Even my little one is not fan of sweets at all… Have a great week, Rhonda! Hugs!! ❤
ohhhhhh my —- out of this world. 🙂
Thanks Susan— so kind. xox
wonderful recipe, that I will try one day, thanks for sharing
thanks– I hope you like it!!
Delicious, I love the delicate ruffle-like edges!
Ha ha– I don’t know how those edges came out like that!! (a lumpy pan??) Always love you’re kind input Marcia. xoxo
These are beautiful!
thanks friend. xo
They look delicious. Unlike Dutch pancakes, which are not delicious at all. No offense relatives.
OK, now I’m curious Lisa– Where did you meet unlikable Dutch pancakes?? And do you have family there?? I’m pretty much down with any kid o pancake– so I need to know! xox
Ha, Ha. In Holland itself. They are thin and they have items, such as whole stripes of bacon, cooked inside. I suppose the pancakes themselves aren’t bad, it’s the topping – they don’t use maple syrup but this disgusting molasses stuff. I do have a fair amount of family there.
I’m a little jealous Lisa– we traveled to the Netherlands a couple times when we lived those years in Spain– and it was all so pretty and charming. And we loved the pancakes, but were definetly eating at tourist places. Do you get to visit very often??
I have been twice. Two weeks in Holland and a day trip from France to Amsterdam. My travel days have been postponed.
I think it would be wonderful to have family in another country to connect with. So glad you were able to go– and hopefully more ahead!! hugs hugs Lisa!
So yummy! I have to admit, I am something of a crepe junky. Are Swedish pancakes very different? -Kat
Hey Kat– these seemed more “eggy” than crepes I’ve had. But easy to make a pile of them and pretty delicious. I’ve only made crepes a couple times– what you you serve in/with them?? Happy weekend! Hope it’s a good one, friend. xo
I seem to be able to comment today! A minor miracle, so I had to scroll down to find this recipe. You’ve made them so gorgeous! And I see that bit of pudding in the whipped cream. What a fun touch!! And thanks for the shout out, Rhonda!
Love your recipes Mollie– have made a bunch of them and they are always great! I want to do these again when the kids come in a few weeks for a family wedding. take care Mollie. xox
You, too, Rhonda!! You’ve had the busiest year with so many “events” !! How wonderful!!
These look beautiful!!
