For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a splash of rum or vanilla extract to the batter. Serve Kaiserschmarrn with a side of fruit compote, such as stewed plums or applesauce, for a complete and delightful dessert experience. Do not overmix the batter after adding egg white, and be gentle while mixing. This is the key to ensuring the pancake is fluffy and soft.

01
Step
10 mins
In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, and salt. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring to avoid lumps. Add the egg yolks one at a time, ensuring each yolk is fully incorporated before adding the next. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
In a separate clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the batter to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining egg whites, being mindful not to deflate them. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
03
Step
6 mins
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in an 8-inch skillet over medium heat. Pour in half of the batter and cook for approximately 4 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown. Loosen the edges with a spatula, slide the pancake onto a plate, and invert it back into the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes, until both sides are beautifully browned. Transfer to a warm platter and keep warm. (Cook time: 6 minutes per pancake)
04
Step
6 mins
Repeat the process with the remaining batter and butter. Once both pancakes are ready, dust generously with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately. (Prep time: 6 minutes per pancake)
