Christmas Recipe Swap
We just had our last support group of 2025 (crazy!) which was our annual support group holiday party, and we were talking about seasonal treats. Since I have yet to find a way we can have an in person potluck, I thought a recipe swap would be the next best thing.
Drop the recipe for your favourite holiday treat so we can all get in on the goodness.
My family is Norwegian (with some of them still living in Norway!) so one of the recipes we've taken to making every holiday season is Lefse. I have fond memories of making them with my Grandma, and eating them with butter and sugar. I haven't quite mastered the art of making them myself, but that doesn't stop me from trying (and eating my attempts!)
Lefse:
- 5 large potatoes
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tbs butter
Boil potatoes. Mash very fine. Add cream butter + salt. Beat until light + let cool. Add flour. Take a piece of dough, roll thin and shape into discs. Bake on top of stove or pancake griddle until light brown

YUMMY!
My mom would make something similar. "Tortas de papa" We never tried them with butter or sugar though. 😍 She would add cheese to the mix of potato and I am assuming all the fixings you mentioned. I haven't mastered making them, but add some protein, and they're a good side dish. I'll post our tamal recipe for you adventurous folks. 🤣
