I love Lefsa, and can not find it in southern California. It might be interesting to use garlic mashed potatoes, because garlic is a natural preservative which might add shelf or refrigerator life. Also it my might be interesting to try red potatoes also.

My Whole family LOVES lefsa! The kids like it with butter & sugar (brown or white) or cinnamin & sugar, then they roll it up. It goes fast! My Husband's Grandmother makes this & every time we go out to visit her we bring back bunches of it. It stores very well in the freezer for even a year. She says it is very time consuming & you need a big nonstick frying pan or maybe a wok. She bought a special lefsa pan online though.

The correct Norwegian spelling is Lefse not Lefsa. Lef-sa is how it may look phonetically.

I am so glad I found this recipe. I haven't made it yet but I'm sure it will be great. I also had lefsa when I was little. They sell it here in upper Michigan, but I think it is too thick. I bought some and tried it with cinnamon and sugar but it wasn't like I remembered. I will have to try it again with my own lefsa and roll them out thin. Thanks for the recipe.

The lefsa was great however it made WAY too much!!!! I made it for a party and had tons of leftovers. This makes enough for about 18-20. Other than that it was delicious and everyone loved it! We sprinkled with butter cinnamon and sugar.

I love and was also raised on Lefsa! I've been making it for my kids for a few years now and butter with brown sugar is our favourite. Just wanted to thank you for the keep your dough balls cooled to prevent sticking. Happy Lefsa making everyone!
