Ingredients
- 2 tbsp rum
- ¼ cup raisins
- 3 eggs separated
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ¾ cup milk
- zest of one lemon
- Pinch salt
- 1 cup flour
- 2 ½ tbsp sugar divided
- 2 tbsp butter
- powdered sugar for topping
- Plum preserves for dipping
Instructions
- In a small bowl, soak ¼ cup raisins in 2 tbsp rum for about 15 minutes. Then, strain the raisins out of the rum and discard the rum. Set the raisins aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix the 3 egg yolks with the ½ tsp vanilla, ¾ cup milk, lemon zest from one lemon, and a pinch of salt. Add the 1 cup flour and 2 tbsp of granulated sugar. Whisk until combined.
- Use an electric hand mixer or stand mixer to whisk the 3 egg whites to soft peaks. Add ½ tbsp of granulated sugar and continue mixing until stiff peaks form.
- Add the egg whites into the batter and gently hand mix with a rubber spatula until the whites from the whites blend into the batter.
- Melt 2 tbsp butter in a large frying pan. Once the butter begins to bubble, add the batter into the pan.
- Sprinkle the top of the batter with the rum-soaked raisins and the remaining ½ tbsp of granulated sugar. Cover with lid and allow it to cook for 3-5 minutes.
- Once the bottom is cooked, flip the pancake. Continue cooking until the batter is cooked all the way through.
- Once cooked, leave the pancake in the pan but use a spatula to cut the pancake into uneven bites.
- Top the shredded pancake with powdered sugar and serve with a side of applesauce or plum preserves. Serve warm in the pan.
Notes
- Recipe Copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only.
- I used spiced rum. You can use whatever you have on hand.
- These are traditional to include, but you can omit them if you do not like raisins.
- All purpose flour
- You will only need the zest.
- Some recipes pour a tablespoon or 2 of the reserved rum into the pancake batter. If you like the taste of rum, you can certainly do this!
- Be gentle when folding the egg whites into the batter! We want as much air in the batter as possible, and the more you mix, the more air deflates out of the eggs.
- You may need to cut the large pancake in half in order to flip it. That is totally fine as we will be destroying the pancake when it is done cooking anyways.
