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...

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 eggy for my taste. I think I'll use less eggs next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crêpes turned out really rubbery. I think I might have overcooked them.

These crêpes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

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

The recipe was easy to follow, but the crêpes didn't turn out as light and fluffy as I had hoped. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These crêpes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add more sugar or vanilla extract next time.

These crêpes were a bit tricky to make at first, but once I got the hang of it, they turned out great! I served them with Nutella and bananas and they were absolutely delicious. Will definitely be making these again.
