Today’s recipe comes from Andrea Hyatt, one of the Board Chairs for the Women’s Experience.
“This is a recipe my beloved Mother Harriette got from her Mother who came to America from Austria. No one I have spoken to over the many years is familiar with the Chremsel. It’s easy to make.
When the mixture goes into a round pan on the stove it begins to form into a pancake. It’s very airy and fluffy. My Mother used to make it often when we were kids at home and then I carried on the tradition and made it for my family. The powdered sugar, butter and syrup add just the right sweetness and flavor to make this a yummy breakfast treat or anytime tasty delight. Enjoy!”
