Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

125g (1C) Self Raising Flour
1tsp Baking Powder
1/4tsp Salt
50g (1/4C) Caster Sugar
1 Egg
150-175ml Milk (1/2 to 3/4C)
Oil for greasing

Steps:

  • Sift the flour and baking powder into a mixing bowl.
  • Add the salt and sugar and stir together.
  • Beat an egg and add with about 100ml of the milk, stirring thoroughly to make a thick batter, and adding extra milk to thin the mixture to the consistency that you want. The thicker it is the thicker your drop scones will be.
  • Heat a pan (ideally nonstick) to a medium-hot temperature and put in a drop of vegetable oil or coconut oil to lightly grease it. Once you've initially greased the pan you usually shouldn't need to do so again.
  • We use a tablespoon to measure out the mixture into the pan at around 3 to 4 pancakes a time, depending on the size. If you want bigger pancakes then use a 1/4 cup, or freehand pour from a jug.
  • Once bubbles form on the surface it's time to flip! Leave for another minute or so in the pan to cook through and remove onto a plate and cover with a tea towel to keep them soft.
  • If you're using a tablespoon to measure out the pancakes this mixture will make around 20 10-12cm pancakes.

SCOTTISH CRUMPETS

PIKELETS (SCOTTISH PANCAKES)



Pikelets (Scottish Pancakes) image

My Aussie friend uses this recipe as her standard pancake recipe. Pikelets are the Scottish version of the southern British crumpet. They are also great for afternoon teas. Serve with fresh-squeezed lemon juice and sugar, or with butter and jam. I always thought that I had the best pancake recipe in the world until I tried these!
