The original ingredients were passed on to me from the older Swedes in our village, simple but wonderful.
I've made this recipe with soy milk (don't add as much) and rye flour for guests who were allergic to dairy and wheat products - and they actually were pretty good! Another variation is to add no fruit but sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. (This is my young childrens' favorite.)
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream
Instructions:
With a spoon, mix all ingredients until just wet. Don't over-mix. Add your favorite fruit to the amount you desire. My favorites are cranberries, blueberries or chocolate chips! The secret to using fruit is to freeze it before adding to the dough mixture; it stays whole that way.
Take half the dough and knead 4 times on a lightly-floured surface. Shape into a flat circle and cut into 8 pie shapes. Place pieces on parchment paper. Brush triangles lightly with cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 350° until bottoms are golden brown.
