Pikelets are a staple breakfast food in Australia, similar to American pancakes, but much smaller in size. They are quick and easy to make, and the perfect breakfast for busy mornings or lazy weekends. The addition of the strawberry jam, a classic Aussie topping, adds a slightly sweet and fruity flavour to the pancakes. These Pikelets are best enjoyed while they are still warm and soft, and can be served with a variety of other toppings, such as butter, honey, or whipped cream.

Instructions

1.In a bowl, mix the self-rising flour, salt, baking soda and vanilla sugar.
2.In a separate bowl, mix the milk and vinegar together. Then pour the mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
3.Add the melted butter and the beaten egg into the mixture and whisk until smooth.
4.Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of butter to the pan. Once the butter is melted, place tablespoons of batter onto the pan, cooking each side until golden brown.
5.Spread some strawberry jam onto each pancake and serve.

PROS

Pikelets are soft, fluffy and easier to make than traditional pancakes.

They’re a popular breakfast choice in Australia and the perfect choice for those who want to prepare breakfast quickly and easily.

CONS

While Pikelets are easy to make and can be a great start to the day, they are not particularly healthy if eaten in large amounts.

They have a high glycemic index, which means they are not suitable for diabetics.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Despite the cons, Pikelets have a few health benefits. The self-rising flour contains essential vitamins and minerals such as iron, calcium and Vitamin B12. Furthermore, strawberries contain fiber and antioxidants, which can help reduce inflammation and lower the risk of heart disease.
