With a hand mixer, mix the egg whites with a pinch of salt and continue to add the granulated sugar until the mixture is thick and creamy.

Step 2

Add vanilla sugar and egg yolk.

Step 3

Carefully add flour and fold three or four times with a whisk (the mast must not become homogenous).

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 220°C / 428°F. Smear an oval-shaped, ovenproof form with butter. Make 4 pyramid-shaped nockerl, placing them next to each other in the baking tray. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown.

Dust with icing sugar and serve quickly so that the Nockerl don’t collapse.
