Lefse

Lefse is a traditional Norwegian Flat Bread. Saw this recipe on Pinterest, and thought I would give it a try. I really liked it... here is the link to the recipe. I left out the Xanthan Gum and it seemed to work well anyway.

I used leftover mashed potatoes, and it was really yummy with honey drizzled on top. :)
