Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and sugar. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and milk together. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until combined to form a smooth batter.
- Heat the skillet: Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the pikelets: Pour small amounts of batter (about 2 tablespoons each) onto the heated skillet to form small pancake-like rounds. Cook on one side for 1-2 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
- Flip and finish cooking: Carefully flip each pikelet using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from the skillet and serve warm with butter, jam, or other toppings of choice.
Notes
- For fluffier pikelets, let the batter rest for 10 minutes before cooking.
- You can add vanilla extract or cinnamon for extra flavor.
- Serve with honey, fresh fruit, or cream for a delicious treat.
- Ensure the skillet is not too hot to avoid burning the pikelets before they are cooked through.
