Story

Svele is very similar to a waffle recipe. Instead of a waffleiron, you only need a pan, and buttermilk for this recipe. Some families call it svele, some call it Lapper. Normally a svele is a little bit larger, and lapper is a smaller version. When you look at them you probably think American pancakes, but these are much sweeter, and a different recipe. And we would never eat them for breakfast. Maybe as lunch from a grocery store, but mostly as a cake/dessert type of meal. I recommend to fry them on low heat so they don’t get burned, and you give them time to be just a tiny bit runny inside to get that perfect consistence.
