This recipe is from my Grandma's cousin. Lefse is a family tradition that we make every year for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Some people like to butter the lefse and then sprinkle it with sugar. I like it just with butter. Read more Once you top it as desired, roll it up and eat! See less
Ingredients
- 4 c. mashed potatoes (best if riced) shopping list
- 1/4 c. heavy cream shopping list
- 1/4 c. butter shopping list
- 1/2 tbsp. salt shopping list
- 3 c. flour, divided shopping list
How to make it
- Mix potatoes, cream, butter, and salt in a large bowl. Cool
- completely.
- Mix in 1/2 of the flour and form into 2 logs and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. I usually refrigerate overnight.
- Cut logs into 6-8 pieces.
- Using a pastry cloth, take the other half of the flour and use a little to cover the cloth. Take one section of log and roll flat with straight-groove rolling pin, flipping over every time you roll, and adding more flour as needed.
- When thin enough, finish each side of the lefse with a checkered-groove rolling pin.
- Use lefse turner to put on preheated lefse griddle (500ยบ F). Turn when it bubbles and browns.
- Remove and lay on flour sack towel and cover. Pile up all, then roll up in a towel until cool.
- Store in plastic bag so they won't dry out.
