This is a Norwegian potato bread that is cooked more like a crepe. Alexandrea & Lorraine loved this on our last couple of trips to Walt Disney World, but it was usurped by the school bread on this latest trip. These are wonderful when spread with a little butter & cinnamon sugar. Or any kind of fruit preserves. The traditional Norwegian fruit is lingonberry.
Lefse
8 cups riced or mashed potatoes
1/2 cup cream
1/4 cup butter
1 tbsp. salt
2 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Rice or mash hot boiled potatoes.
Add all other ingredients except flour.
Cool. (Set in fridge several hours or overnight.)
Add flour to cooled potato mixture. (Mix in with your hands works best.)

Poll out thin.
Use flour as needed on rolling pin and pastry cloth.
Cook on hot, dry lefse griddle or non-stick pan, cooking once each side.
