Swedish Wafers

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare two waffle irons or have them ready for use.

Cream together butter and sugar in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Beat in eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.

Stir in vanilla extract until combined.

Gently fold in flour and shredded almonds until just combined, being careful not to overmix the batter.

Heat the waffle iron until it is hot, then lightly butter each section.

Pour approximately 1-2 tablespoons of batter into each waffle iron section, working in batches.

Close the waffle iron and cook until the wafers are golden brown and crispy, approximately 2-3 minutes.

Transfer the finished wafers to a cooling rack or paper towel.

Repeat with remaining batter until all is used, re-buttering the waffle iron between batches as needed.
