Scrambled Pancakes (Kaiserschmarrn)

These cozy and nostalgic scrambled pancakes - also known as Kaiserschmarrn - is a beloved Austrian and German treat! Fluffy, lightly caramelized pancake pieces are torn into bite-sized chunks, dusted with powdered sugar, and served with apple puree or fruit compote. This recipe is naturally dairy-free and egg-free, turning it into a cozy vegan Kaiserschmarrn that works just as well for breakfast as it does for dessert.

Instructions

  • Soak the raisins: Place the raisins in fruit juice, water, or rum and soak for 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
  • Make the batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Add the soy milk, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, and soaked raisins. Stir until just smooth. Gently fold in the sparkling water.
  • Cook the pancake: Heat a generous amount of oil in a wide pan over medium-high heat. Pour in the batter and let it cook undisturbed until the edges are set and the bottom is lightly golden.
  • Scramble: Using a spatula, cut the pancake into four sections. Flip and continue cooking, then tear the pieces into smaller, rustic chunks using two spatulas. Cook until lightly browned and fluffy throughout.
  • Serve: Dust generously with powdered sugar and serve warm with apple purée, or other toppings as desired.
