Viennese-Style Breakfast Crêpes (Palatschinken) image

Palatschinen is Austria's version of a breakfast crêpe or pancake, which is a little thicker than a crêpe but much thinner than an American pancake. And they're rolled up (jelly-roll style) and traditionally filled with apricot jam and served for breakfast. What sets the Viennese version apart from other Palatschinen recipes...

Categories     Pancakes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

FILLING
1 cup apricot jam
1 Tbsp brandy
BATTER
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 pinch salt
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
butter, as needed (for cooking crepes)
confectioners' sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Stir the brandy into the apricot jam; set aside.
  • 2. Sift the flour, sugar and salt into a medium-size mixing bowl. Gradually add the milk, stirring, to make a smooth batter. Add the eggs and vanilla, and stir until the batter is smooth again.
  • 3. Heat a small pat of butter in a nonstick 9-inch skillet over medium heat. Pour in about 1/3 cup batter or just enough to thinly (but completely) cover the skillet. (Tip: the best way to achieve this is, just after adding the batter, swirl or rotate the skillet from side to side to help the batter spread across the skillet. Work quickly though, before the batter begins to cook and "set".)
  • 4. Cook the crepes, one at a time, over medium heat until the bottom is lightly browned and the pancake is firm. Flip the crepe and cook the other side until lightly browned. Don't overcook them, as they will become stiff.
  • 5. Transfer cooked crepes to a flat surface and spread a small amount of the brandied jam on each crepe. Then roll up the crepe neatly. Stack rolled crepes on a platter, and cover with a clean cloth to keep them warm. Repeat this Steps #4 and #5 until all the batter is used.
  • 6. To serve, generously dust each Palatschinken with powdered sugar.

These crêpes were a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll try using less batter next time.

These crêpes were a fun and easy project to make with my kids. They loved helping me flip the crêpes and they gobbled them up when they were done.

I'm not a fan of sweet breakfasts, so I filled my crêpes with savory ingredients like cheese and ham. They were delicious!

These crêpes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some spices or herbs to the batter next time.

These crêpes were delicious, but I found the recipe to be a bit confusing. I had to read it through several times before I felt confident that I understood it.

I was a bit skeptical about making crêpes at home, but these turned out great! The batter was easy to make and the crepes cooked evenly. Will definitely be making them again.
