Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 4 Large eggs
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoons Sugar
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 6 Bacon strips
• 2 tablespoons Chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and position a rack in the middle of the oven.

Step 2

Dice the bacon into bite-sized pieces and cook in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set it aside, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and sugar. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously until smooth.

Step 4

Beat the eggs in a separate bowl, then add them to the batter. Mix until fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 5

Add the butter to the skillet with the bacon fat and place the skillet in the preheated oven for 2-3 minutes, until the butter is melted and the skillet is hot.

Step 6

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and pour the batter into the hot skillet. Sprinkle the cooked bacon evenly over the batter.

Step 7

Place the skillet back in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pancake cool for a few minutes. Optionally, garnish with chopped chives before serving.

Step 9

Slice and serve warm, either on its own or with a side of lingonberry jam for a traditional Swedish touch.
