How to Make Austrian Kaiserschmarren With Raisins And Plum Jam
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until light and frothy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour (adjust amount if using all-purpose flour as noted in the tips), baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the raisins and milk until evenly distributed in the batter.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat with butter or oil.
- Pour the batter onto the hot surface, spreading it evenly to form a large pancake approximately ½ inch thick.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Carefully transfer the pancake to a cutting board.
- Using two spatulas, tear the pancake into bite-sized pieces.
- Return the torn Kaiserschmarren to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the edges to brown slightly.
- Serve immediately, topped with powdered sugar, plum jam, and a dusting of cinnamon (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
