German Scrambled Pancakes with apples – A healthy spin on a traditional Kaiserschmarrn recipe that I grew up eating in Germany!  Kaiserschmarrn is a traditional Austrian dish that is also hugely popular in Germany. This healthy version is made with spelt and buckwheat flour, which gives the scrambled pancakes a slightly nutty flavour. It’s lightly sweetened with natural raw cane sugar or coconut sugar. <\/p>\n

Scrambled Pancakes “Kaiserschmarrn” \u2013 a traditional Austrian recipe<\/h2>\n

Think of Kaiserschmarrn (translates to emeror’s mess) as a shredded, or scrambled pancake. It is lightly sweetened and super fluffy thanks so whipped egg whites! This shredded pancake got its name from the Austrian emperor (Kaiser) Franz Joseph I, who was very fond of this sweet egg dish. No one knows whether its invention was purely intentional. It might have been as simple as someone unable to flip a pancake properly, then trying to cover it up and sell it as a new invention. Sounds like something I would do. Nonetheless, this traditional Austirna dish has stood the test the time is loved by young and old alike.<\/p>\n

Typically a traditional Kaiserschmarrn recipe would be prepared in a skillet with plenty of butter or ghee, but it can also be made in the oven.  I made mine in a non-stick skillet using little fat and instead of white flour, I used rye flour and buckwheat flour. <\/p>\n
