INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup rum
1 cup whole milk
5 eggs
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/4 cup confectioners* sugar, plus more for dusting
plum preserves for serving
DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, combine raisins with rum and let soak 30 minutes then
drain.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat together the milk, eggs, white sugar,
vanilla, and salt. Gradually whisk in the flour to make a smooth batter.
Stir in the drained raisins.
In a large skillet melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Pour the
batter into the skillet and cook 5 to 6 minutes, or until the pancake
has set and the bottom is golden brown. Turn over the pancake and cook 3
minutes, or until this side is also golden brown. Using a spatula or two
forks, tear the pancake into bite-size pieces. Drizzle in the melted
butter and sprinkle with confectioners* sugar. Turn up the heat to
medium high and use a spatula to gently toss the pieces for 5 minutes,
or until the sugar has caramelized. Sprinkle with additional
confectioners* sugar and serve with plum preserves.
