Yesterday we made some sort of pancakes called pikelets which turned out kind of decent especially with the raspberry jam that we added at the end.
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp white sugar
- 1 cup self raising flour (or 1 cup plain flour and 2 tsp baking powder)
- pinch salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 tbsp of melted butter
- Spray oil/canola oil for cooking
Directions
- In a bowl, beat the egg and sugar until mixture has thickened and turned pale. (I use an electric hand mixer for this, but you could do by hand.)
- In another bowl, sift together the flour and salt (and baking powder if using plain flour).
- Pour the egg mixture, the milk and melted butter into the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined.
- Heat some oil in a non-stick frying pan on the stove to a medium heat.
- Drop in mixture. When bubbles begin to form, flip each pikelet over to cook the other side. (Add a little extra oil, or spray oil to the pan after every couple of pikelets as needed to stop them sticking).
- Serve immediately, with a drizzle of maple syrup and fresh fruit or cream and jam!
- Once cool, these can be frozen and reheated in the microwave when needed.
