I was raised on lefse as a special treat for the holidays. We still make it every holiday season and this is the best recipe ever. We eat ours with butter and sugar. Note: you will need a potato ricer to prepare this recipe.
Ingredients
- 10 pounds potatoes, peeled
- ½ cup butter
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
Directions
Step 1
Gather all ingredients.
Step 2
Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes; drain.
Step 3
Run hot potatoes through a potato ricer into a large bowl. Beat butter, cream, salt, and sugar into riced potatoes. Let cool to room temperature.
Step 4
Stir flour into potato mixture to form a soft dough. Pull off pieces of dough and form into walnut-sized balls.
Step 5
Lightly flour a clean cloth and roll out lefse balls to 1/8-inch thick.
Step 6
Heat a griddle over high heat.
Step 7
Cook lefse on the hot griddle until brown blisters form, about 1 minute per side. Place cooked lefse on a damp towel to cool slightly. Repeat with remaining dough, stacking them on top of each other as they're cooked; cover until ready to serve.
