Kaiser Schmarren
• 3 cups flour • 4 whole eggs
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup sugar
• not quite 1/2 quart of milk
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 3 heaping Tbls. lard
• Confection sugar
In a bowl mix the flour, 4 eggs, salt, milk and melted butter.
Mix with a whisk until smooth.
Melt the lard in a cast iron pot, get it very hot!
Pour in all the batter at once and cook it as a large pancake, over high heat.
As it cooks lift up the edges of the pancake to let the uncooked batter flow underneath.
When it is completely set, pull apart the pancake with the spatula and turn pieces over to cook on the other side. The pancake pieces should have some browned edges.
This dish only takes a few minutes to make, but you must stay with it if you do not want to have charred pieces.
Pile onto a serving dish, and sprinkle the top with powdered sugar.
