In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, plain Greek yogurt, protein powder, whole wheat flour, milk, honey, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk vigorously until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Gently fold the raisins into the batter.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt, ensuring it fully coats the pan.
Once the butter is hot and bubbling, pour the batter into the frying pan. Cook undisturbed for about 3 minutes or until the edges start to set and the bottom is golden brown.
Using a spatula, cut the pancake into quarters. Flip each piece to cook on the opposite side for an additional 2-3 minutes until it’s fully cooked through.
With the spatula, further tear the pancake into bite-sized pieces. Continue to cook and stir the pieces for another 2 minutes to crisp the edges.
Transfer the Kaiserschmarrn to serving plates. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh mint, if desired. Serve immediately for the fluffiest texture.
