In 1970, I went with my boy scout troop on a trip to the UP. Forty-two years later, I had the great pleasure of travelling with a few of my boy scout buddies on that same trip. We had a great time exploring the 'Yooper Wonderland' ~ Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Some of the next few posts were inspired by the people and places we had the pleasure discovering.
While in Houghton, we ate at Suomi's Home Bakery and Restaurant, a local hang out specializing in Finnish dishes (especially breakfast.) Pannukakku is similar in taste to a Swedish pancake except it is oven baked and more like a custard. Super simple to make (especially in a food-processor) and very, very tasty.
Ingredients:
4
cups milk
4
eggs
1/2
cup sugar
1
teaspoon salt
1
teaspoon vanilla
1
cup flour
4
tablespoons melted butter
Directions:
Beat
eggs then add everything else (melted butter last). Mix well and pour into a
greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 400 degrees until the custard is set and browned on
top (40-45 minutes) Serve with powdered
sugar and your favorite jam or jelly.
