Answer #1

Here’s a recipe I have, and I found it to be as close to authentic as I could find (mysterywolf is right - it’s like a crêpe):

4 Whole eggs
2 c Sifted flour 2 c Milk
Butter 2 ts Sugar

Mix flour, salt and sugar. Combine well beaten eggs and milk. Add egg and milk gradually to flour mixture, beating to a thin smooth batter. Let batter sit for 1/2 hour. (to get rid of the raw flour taste). Spoon 3 Tbls. on hot buttered skillet (batter will be very thin). Tilt skillet quickly in a circular motion to distribute batter over skillet. Brown lightly on both sides. Continue this until batter is used up.

As each crepe is done, spread with strawberry jam, roll up lightly and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Answer #2

Hmm.. apparently they’re pretty much the same as crêpe? I had a hard time looking for the exact time palacsintá was invented, because it generally popped up when everyone in the world found out that yummy stuff happens when you add eggs with flour, lol. But anyway, here are a few websites I found that might help:
