Swedish Lingonberry Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle fresh lingonberries with sugar and let stand while measuring the other ingredients.
• If canned lingonberries are used, leave out the sugar and just measure one cup of the canned berries, since they are already sweetened.
• Mix flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
• Combine egg, milk, butter in another bowl and pour into well in center of dry ingredients.
• Stir lightly and quickly fold in berries.
• Batter will be lumpy.
• Fill muffin cups three-fourths full and bake until tester comes out clean.
• Bake at 400 to 425 degrees 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent. Remove the onion to a plate and cool. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground meats, egg yolks, heavy cream and onion. Add salt, pepper and allspice. Squeeze excess milk from the bread and add it to the bowl. Mix gently with your hands or wooden spoon.
• With a bowl of cold water standing by, form meatballs about 1-inch across. Dip your fingers in cold water, from time to time, to keep the meat from sticking to your hands.
• Melt the remaining butter in the saute pan and once the foam has subsided add a layer of meatballs. Do not overcrowd the pan. Shake the pan once in awhile, to keep the meatballs round. Brown all of the meatballs, in batches, removing them to a large oven safe dish when cooked. Put the dish in the oven for about 20 minutes, being careful not to overcook them.
• To make the sauce: Pour off most of the fat from the skillet and return it to the heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and swirl it around to coat the pan. Sprinkle in the flour, and stir with a wooden spoon or whisk to dissolve the flour into the fat. Pour in the chicken stock, and stir to loosen the bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer, stirring, until the liquid is reduced and the mixture starts to thicken to a sauce. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Lower the heat and stir in the cream and the black currant jam. Add the meatballs to the sauce. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly and the meatballs are heated through, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley.
• To serve, spoon a couple of meatballs onto each plate along with a spoonful of sauce, and serve with the lingonberry jam on the side.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs and the milk; stir with a fork and let stand for 5 minutes. Put 3 tablespoons of the butter in a small skillet and let it melt over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, and caraway; season with salt and pepper. Saute until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Put the ground beef and pork in a large bowl. Add the sweated shallot mixture, egg, parsley, and dill; season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the milk out of the soaked bread crumbs, add the bread to the meat mixture, and mix well using your hands. Pinch off about 1/2 cup worth of the meat mixture and roll it around in your moistened hands to shape it into a cue ball-sized meatball. Continue forming the meatballs and putting them on a platter; there should be about 20 meatballs.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over moderate heat. When the foam starts to subside, add the meatballs in batches so you don't overcrowd the pan. Saute the meatballs until well-browned on all sides, about 7 minutes total. Remove the meatballs to a platter lined with paper towels as they are done.
• Discard most of the fat from the skillet and return it to the heat. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and swirl it around to coat the pan. Sprinkle in the flour, and stir with a wooden spoon to dissolve into the fat. Pour in the chicken broth, and stir with a wooden spoon to loosen the bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer and stir until the liquid is reduced and a sauce starts to form; season with salt and pepper. Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream. Return the meatballs to the sauce and stir in 1/4 cup of the lingonberry jam until combined. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly and the meatballs are heated through, about 15 to 20 minutes. Shower with chopped parsley and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve the Swedish meatballs with additional lingonberry jam on the side.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs lightly in a large bowl, and add the milk, flour, sugar, and salt while gently stirring until blended. Stir in the melted butter. Cover the batter and refrigerate overnight or up to 2 days.
• Heat a griddle and brush it lightly with oil. Pour a thin stream of batter in a circle onto the hot griddle to make a 6-inch pancake. (The pancakes should be very thin.) Cook pancake 20 seconds, flip, and cook another 20 seconds until done.
• Serve immediately, topped with lingonberries and a dollop of sour cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan.

• Whisk flour, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Whisk vegetable oil and egg together in a separate bowl; stir egg mixture into flour mixture just until batter is combined.
• Fold oat mixture into batter; fold in saskatoon berries. Divide batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups; sprinkle muffins with brown sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 18 minutes. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Serve warm or cool completely on a wire rack.
