My mum just rang me to get a pikelet recipe. I tried this slightly different recipe one evening last week when hubby got cravings – worth adding it to the recipe file. I remember when growing up we used to have this rule in my household that on your pikelets you could have butter and jam or jam and cream but you couldn’t have butter, jam and cream. I think it was my mum’s way of making sure our pikelets were vaguely healthy! One of my favourite ways of having pikelets is re frying them up later in a bit of butter – they go sort of crunchy and golden.
Golden Syrup Pikelets
1 rounded Tbsp golden Syrup, 25g butter, 1 Tbsp sugar, ½ C milk, 1 large egg, 1C self-raising flour. Pour syrup in a bowl with the butter. Warm to soften both, mix in sugar, milk and egg. Sprinkle flour over top, then mix in with a whisk.
