1. If using, soak the raisins in rum for about 10 minutes, then drain.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, milk, egg yolks, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.
3. In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
4. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter, ensuring you maintain as much air in the mixture as possible.
5. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
6. Pour half of the batter into the skillet, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle half of the soaked raisins on top.
7. Allow the pancake to cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and the top is still slightly wet.
8. Flip the pancake over using a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until golden and fully cooked.
9. Using two forks, tear the pancake into bite-sized pieces while still in the pan. Add another tablespoon of butter and let it caramelize slightly.
10. Transfer the chopped pancake pieces to a serving plate and dust with powdered sugar.
11. Repeat the process with the remaining batter and raisins.
12. Serve the Kaiserschmarrn warm, with apple compote or plum jam on the side.
