Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt until well combined.

  2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks and milk until smooth. Gradually add the egg yolk mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.

  3. In another bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter until just combined; be careful not to overmix.

  4. Melt the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the batter into the skillet and cook for a few minutes until the bottom is golden brown.

  5. Sprinkle raisins over the top of the pancake, if desired, and then carefully flip it over using a spatula. Cook for a few more minutes until the other side is golden brown and the pancake is cooked through.

  6. Using the spatula, tear the pancake into bite-sized pieces directly in the skillet. Let the pieces sauté for a few minutes to develop a slightly crispy exterior.

  7. Transfer the torn-up pancake to a serving plate and dust generously with powdered sugar. Serve hot with a dollop of applesauce or fruit compote on the side.
