If you haven’t tried (or heard of) a Finnish Pancake, you are probably reading this a little bit confused. If you HAVE had one of these delicious beauties, then you a reading this with excitement in hopes of scoring the recipe!
For those of you who don’t know what a Finnish Pancake is, the best way I can describe it is if a crepe, pancake and omelet had a baby, it would be this pancake. It’s baked in the oven and super easy to make for large brunch. My recipe feeds 4 people, but it can easily be doubled or tripled to feed more!
I first tried the Finnish Pancake at the Big E (a huge fair in Western Massachusetts) when I was probably 6 years old. From that point on, every year, I would continue to head straight to the massive line every (and pay $5) to score a piece.
Once I got into cooking and food, I realized the Finnish Pancake was so easy to make and I could actually have it all year round (and make the entire recipe for less than $5).
Finnish Pancakes
Ingredients
- 2 Eggs
- 1/2 cup Whole Milk
- 1/2 cup Flour
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tbsp Butter melted
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees . Whisk all ingredients together in a bowl until well combined (start with the eggs). The batter will be thin.
- Pour batter into a buttered (or greased) 11 X 7 pan and bake for 30 minutes or until edges are golden brown. The pancake will be all puffed up and flatten out once it’s out of the oven.

This Finnish Pancake delicious! I bet you have all the ingredients in your kitchen right now, so give this a try!
Love always,
