Swedish Pancakes

This is a traditional recipe from my mom's side of the family. These are so yummy. They are very much (ok, almost exactly) like a crepe, but they are thicker and have a little more flavor and we didn't eat them in the same way. We would put butter on them, then a little jam or syrup or just sprinkled sugar. Then the roll them up and slice them and eat them. Yum! And single batch serves 2-4 depending on how hungry people are. It's not very big.

4 eggs well beaten
1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. nutmeg
2 T. sugar
1 c. + 1 T. flour
2 c. milk

Beat eggs well. Add dry ingredients. Add the milk last and mix in slowly. (Avoid overbeating or it will get tough.)

Lightly grease a pan and pour in a little batter (1/4 cup?) and tilt the pan to spread the batter around the bottom. Cook over medium to medium-high heat for a minute until you can lift up the edges and flip it with the spatula. Cook the other side lightly and serve.
