Lefse Recipe #323899

Another family recipe from the Petzenhausers from Lake City. This is different from the recipe we use so I thought I'd post it. For my husbands family they roll their lefse very thin. So when I make this recipe I'll use walnut size pieces of dough. You will need a lefse grill to make these.
