About this dish
Kaiserschmarrn or Kaiserschmarren is a lightly sweetened pancake that takes its name from the Austrian emperor Franz Joseph I, who was fond of this fluffy shredded pancake. It is served as a dessert or as a light lunch. Kaiserschmarrn is a popular meal or dessert in Austria, Bavaria, and many parts of the former Austro-Hungarian empire, e.g. northern Italy, Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Slovenia, northern Croatia and western Romania, which usually use the name as a loan word or translations of it.
