Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup self-raising flour
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 0.75 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon butter or oil (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift the self-raising flour to remove any lumps.
Add the caster sugar to the flour and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the egg. Then add the milk and melted butter, and mix until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The consistency should be thick but pourable.
Heat a non-stick frying pan or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a teaspoon of butter or oil.
Spoon tablespoons of the batter onto the frying pan, leaving space between each pikelet. You should be able to fit about 3-4 pikelets per batch, depending on the size of your pan.
Cook the pikelets for 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set. Flip them gently with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Transfer the cooked pikelets to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve the pikelets warm with butter, jam, honey, or fresh cream as desired. Enjoy!
