Tsar''s roast or schmorn is a quick and easy dish that can be served for breakfast or dinner, as well as for lunch. It goes perfectly with BAM spreads, raspberry topping or just a spoonful of powdered sugar. It is a puff pastry dessert, and raisins are also added to the recipe as an original. Also known as ''imperial mess'', it could also be called a fluffy and light giant pancake, which is torn into small pieces after baking. It can be prepared in one of two ways: in a frying pan or baked in the oven. We have prepared a recipe for oven-roasted schmorn, which will make it even fluffier and will not take any extra time to prepare.
There are several versions of the story of how the roast of the Tsar, or schmorn, came to be. One of the stories is based on a journey through the Alps. When Francis Joseph and his wife were travelling in the Alps, they were supposed to stop for lunch at a farmer''s house. The farmer was so nervous that he threw all the best ingredients he had into a frying pan and used them to make a delicious thick pancake.

But nervousness and shaking hands, which was the fault of the honourable visit, caused him to tear the pancake into small pieces. Hoping to cover up the mess, he then poured plum jam over the whole thing.
The Tsar''s roast can be served with fluffy American pancakes or yoghurt muffins, or prepared in another way. Some ideas are below:
