Directions
Kaiserschmarrn is an incredibly popular dessert in Austria, especially in Vienna, the city I live in. You cook it at home in the morning, and then, walking downtown in the evening, you can see people savor it in coffee shops.
This rich dessert tastes like sweet but light and fluffy pancakes. It can be cooked either in the oven or on the stove. I would recommend you to use the oven.
Here you can find some tips for cooking a Kaiserschmarrn.
Recipe is from the blog I like very much www.mrsflury.com
