Directions

Sift the flour into a medium bowl, and stir in the sugar. Make a well in the center, and add the egg. Stir with a wooden spoon while gradually pouring in the milk until you reach the consistency that you prefer. Thicker picklets will need a thick batter, while thin picklets will need a thin batter. Stir in melted butter last, beating until smooth.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Coat with cooking spray. Drop by large spoonfuls onto the hot skillet. Picklets should be about 2 inches across. Flip when bubbles appear on the surface, and cook until browned on the other side.

"Just to let everyone know as the original submitter of this recipe, pikelets are not meant to be eaten as a breakfast food like pancakes. They are meant to be eaten at morning tea, tea parties, birthd..." See moreay parties, lunch and just as a treat or snack. It is fine if you like to use the recipe for a pancake, but originally you had them for brunch with cups of tea or coffee. Kids love them at birthday parties. Spread the pikelets with jam and put on top a big dollop of whipped cream."

"It's a pretty good basic recipe. I use a little more milk than suggested to cut down on the flour flavour. I also add a dash of vanilla...." See more"
