RECIPE:
Sveler
Norwegian pancakes
Sveler (sing. ‘svele’) are an absolute must-try when you are in Norway. This traditional Norwegian snack is similar to American pancakes, and is usually served with butter and sweet brown cheese, or a butter and sugar mix.
You can find sveler in many cafés across the country, as well as onboard most ferries! In Norway, we call it fergesvele, ferry svele, and it's the perfect treat when travelling by boat.
They're also very easy to make at home! Try the recipe:
