Ingredients

For the Banana Compote

Instructions

Soak the Raisins

  • Add rum and raisins to a small bowl and set aside. Let soak for 20 minutes, then drain.

Make the Banana Compote

  • Set aside ¼ of one of the bananas. Add orange juice and lemon juice to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add sliced bananas, maple syrup, vanilla paste, and brown sugar. Stir to dissolve sugar and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and set aside to cool in a small bowl.

Make the Pancakes

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine coconut flour, rice flour, soy flour, and powdered sugar. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, and add crushed banana and coconut milk.
  • In a small bowl, stir together apple cider vinegar and baking powder. Add to the flour and whisk to combine until smooth. Stir in the raisins.
  • Prepare sweetened coconut oil mix. Melt 1 tablespoon of coconut oil and stir in the cane sugar. Set aside.

Cook the Kaiserschmarrn

  • Melt remaining 3 tablespoons of coconut oil in a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Pour the batter into the skillet and cook for 4 minutes.
  • Flip, and cook for 2 minutes. Use a spatula to break the pancake into smaller pieces. Pour the sweetened coconut oil mix into the skillet and continue tossing for 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle some powdered sugar on top and serve with banana compote.

Notes

Use a cast iron skillet: It heats evenly and helps caramelize the pancake edges.
Don't skip the glaze: The sweetened coconut oil gives it that signature caramelized texture.
Break the pancake gently: Use a spatula to keep the pieces fluffy, not mashed.
