Kaiserschmarrn with raisins and rum

Raisins mixed with rum go into Kaiserschmarrn with raisins and rum, a thick, sweet pancake torn into pieces and browned in butter. The eggs, milk, sour cream and flour give it a soft center and browned edges; I prefer larger pieces, so they keep a little of that fluffy center instead of turning into tiny crumbs in the pan. Prep: 15 minutes. Cook: 12 minutes. Rest: 30 minutes. Total time: 57 minutes. Servings: 4. About 490 kcal and 13 g protein per serving.
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 250 ml milk
- 2 heaped tablespoons granulated sugar
- 15 g sour cream
- 200 g type 00 white flour
- 1 g salt
- 100 g raisins
- 1 tablespoon rum
- 50 g butter
- 10 g powdered sugar
Preparation
1. Separate the eggs. Put the yolks in a bowl with the milk, sugar, sour cream and flour, then mix until you have a smooth batter. 2. Beat the egg whites with 1 g of salt until they hold stiff peaks. 3. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter. Mix the raisins with the rum and add them. 4. Melt the butter in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Pour in the batter and cook for 7 minutes, until browned underneath and starting to set on top. 5. Tear the pancake into pieces with a spatula, turn them over and cook for another 5 minutes, until lightly browned. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and leave to cool for 30 minutes. I served them cold.
Notes
Egg whites beat better in a clean, dry bowl with no traces of yolk. In a smaller pan, the batter sits thicker; keep the heat lower and allow another 2-3 minutes, until it no longer looks glossy in the middle. Mix the rum into the raisins before adding them to the batter; for an alcohol-free version, replace the tablespoon of rum with a tablespoon of apple juice. Serve the pieces with applesauce or blueberry jam. You can use 100 g of dried cranberries instead of the raisins; the batter contains gluten, dairy and eggs. Leftovers keep covered in the fridge for up to 3 days and can be briefly reheated in a pan.
FAQ
Why does the batter turn out dense?
Beat the egg whites for 3-4 minutes, until they hold stiff peaks; if they stay soft, the batter loses some of the air whipped into it.
Can I replace the sour cream with yogurt?
Yes, use 15 g of full-fat Greek yogurt and mix it with the yolks, just as you would the sour cream.
How big should the pieces be?
Tear them into pieces about 4-5 cm across; much smaller ones brown quickly and can dry out.
