Austrian Kaiserschmarren With Raisins and Plum Jam

ZWT 6. These pancakes are delicious. I just tried them this morning. I heated the juice of half an orange in the microwave and put the raisins in the hot juice to plump up. If you don't have cake flour or pastry flour on hand, use all purpose white flour, but use 2 tbsp less flour.
