Pikelets
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbs caster sugar
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- A knob of butter or oil, for frying
Method
1. Sift the flour, baking powder and sugar into a large bowl.
Whisk in the milk and egg to the dry ingredients and mix until
just combined. Try not to overbeat the batter as it will make the
pikelets go tough.
2. Heat a frying pan over medium heat with a little bit of butter.
Drop tablespoons of the pikelet batter onto the pan and cook
until the bubbles appear on the topside. Flip the pikelets
over and cook for another minute or so, or until golden.
3. Serve immediately.
These pikelets go well with maple syrup or make your own flavoured butter such as cinnamon butter.
