Kaiserschmarrn gluten-free and vegan – Austria's classic reimagined

Kaiserschmarrn is one of those dishes that evokes childhood memories: warm, fluffy, caramelized, and dusted with powdered sugar. But when gluten, milk, or eggs are eliminated, it seems unattainable.
With Zaubermehl , Kaiserschmarrn is once again possible for everyone – whether classic or purely plant-based.
Why organic magic flour is great for Kaiserschmarren
Kaiserschmarrn typically requires gluten for the right texture and eggs for binding. Magic flour cleverly replaces both:
- Chickpea flour & tapioca → provide stability and fluffiness
- Rice flour & turmeric → provide consistency and color
- Optional Aquafaba (chickpea water) → makes the vegan version airy
- This way you get the perfect balance between juicy and fluffy – without any compromises.
