Ingredients

Units Scale

Austrian Pancake

  • 3 tbsp raisins
  • 3 tbsp water (or rum)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 5 eggs
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • dash of salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Strawberry Compote

  • 2 cups strawberries, sliced
  • juice of half a lemon
  • 1/4 cup sugar

Instructions

Austrian Pancake

  1. In a small bowl, soak the raisins in water (or rum) for 15 minutes then drain. In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla. Gradually stir in the flour and the raisins.
  2. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Pour the batter into the pan rotating pan slightly to spread the batter out, if necessary. Cook 4-5 minutes or until the bottom is lightly golden.
  3. Carefully slide a spatula around the edges of the pancake and then flip. It's ok if the pancake tears at this point. Cook for another 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Using a fork or your fingers, tear the pancake into bite size pieces. Drizzle with the remaining butter and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Gently toss the pieces over medium heat until the sugar has caramelized. Serve with additional powdered sugar and strawberry compote if desired.

Strawberry Compote

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the strawberries, lemon juice and sugar and simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes.
