All the goals came in the first half, with Filippa Angeldal opening the scoring with a fine strike on 14 minutes.
Nina Jakobsson doubled the lead with a free header from a corner before the half-hour.
Michelle De Jongh got the third goal 3 minutes short of the interval, returning a half-cleared corner with a header from the edge of the box.
