1 cup Edmonds standard flour; 1 tsp Edmonds baking powder; 1/4 tsp salt; 1 egg; 1/4 cup sugar; 3/4 cup milk, approximately
1. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. 2. In another bowl beat the egg and sugar with a whisk until pale and thick. 3. Add the egg mixture and the milk to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. 4. Gently heat a non-stick frying pan and drop tablespoonfuls of the mixture from the point of the spoon onto the surface. 5. When bubbles start to burst on the top of the pikelets, turn them over and cook the second side until golden. Place in a clean tea towel to cool.
