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
- None Powdered sugar, for dusting
- None Fruit compote or jam, for serving
Directions
Step 1
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.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy. Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
Step 3
Gently fold the egg whites into the flour and milk mixture, taking care not to deflate the egg whites.
Step 4
Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add half of the butter.
Step 5
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.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
Cook the pieces for an additional minute, tossing them gently to ensure they are evenly cooked.
Step 8
Remove the shredded pancake pieces from the pan and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter if necessary.
Step 9
Transfer the cooked Kaiserschmarren to serving plates. Dust generously with powdered sugar and serve immediately with fruit compote or jam on the side.
