Easy breakfast recipe… Kaiserschmarrn!

April 8, 2017
Kaiserschmarrn, austrian pancake,
‘Do you remember the time when we fell in love? Do you remember the time when we first met?’ Yes, yes, I do remember the first time oh sweet Kaiserschmarrn! My brother made me some when we were last together in Watamu which is a beautiful part of the Kenyan coastline.

This recipe is my take on the classic and it is a great breakfast option although, dare i say I love it as a snack! This comes in handy when the I’m half asleep in the morning and the kids want breakfast or when they have friends over and they’re all feeling peckish.

Now, this recipe is so versatile. Love chocolate chips? Add them to the mix. Love blueberries? add those to the mix too! The list is endless! Ive added shredded coconut, fruit and even chia seeds!

Here is a secret icing recipe that never fails me4 tbsp of butter, 2 tbsp coconut cream, 3 tbsp icing sugar. Mix them all up and serve as a side with Kaiserschmarrn

Now the original authentic recipe calls for some raisins but my kids and I don’t like them so I omit them

There’s a printable sheet for you to stick in your kitchen and use.

Welcome to Swahili food. We love comments. Feel free to share this breakfast  delight.
