Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 250 milliliters Milk
- 4 Large eggs, separated
- 40 grams Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 30 grams Butter
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
- Fruit compote or jam, for serving
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour and milk until smooth. Add the egg yolks, vanilla extract, and salt, and whisk until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy. Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the egg whites into the flour and milk mixture, taking care not to deflate the egg whites.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add half of the butter.
Once the butter has melted and is slightly bubbling, pour half of the batter into the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown and the top is set.
Using a spatula, gently flip the pancake over and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Break the pancake into bite-sized pieces using two forks or the spatula.
Cook the pieces for an additional minute, tossing them gently to ensure they are evenly cooked.
Remove the shredded pancake pieces from the pan and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter if necessary.
Transfer the cooked Kaiserschmarren to serving plates. Dust generously with powdered sugar and serve immediately with fruit compote or jam on the side.
