Making Potato Lefse

Join us to learn the art of making potato lefse, the soft Norwegian flatbread! Using a potato based dough, you will learn to form the dough into a ball, roll out to a thin layer, and bake on a hot grill. You will learn the recipe and preparation as well as the equipment used and where to purchase it. You will take a stack of hot lefse home to eat, cool and freeze, or just donate the stack to the supply for the Lefse Run. Storage ideas and a Gluten Free recipe are available.

This class is offered thanks to a partnership with Duluth Folk School and First Lutheran Church with a portion of the proceeds going to support Safe Haven and their annual Lefse Run fundraiser. The Lefse Run will be held December 13 this year.

Registration Includes

Instruction and all materials are included. You will go home with a stack of Lefse as well as the knowledge to make more at home.

What goes into our class pricing? As a local nonprofit, Duluth Folk School is committed to supporting both our instructors and community. We want to compensate our instructors fairly, keep class sizes small, and keep our doors open—while also keeping prices as low as we can.
