Yummy golden little pancakes served warm with jam or honey. Every Australian would have made these many times throughout their youth. My son had his little friend over today and I ended up making a second batch because the boys gobbled them up and begged for more.

Equipment

Pouring jug, whisk, frying pan, spatula, plate, paper towel

Ingredients

1 large egg
1/4 cup sugar (use vanilla sugar if you have it, or as some reviewers have suggested ...add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of va)
1/2 cup milk (1-2 tbsp extra may be required for correct consistency)
1 cup self raising flour

Instructions

In a pouring jug, whisk together well the egg, sugar and half of the milk.
Add the flour and mix thoroughly.
Then add milk until the batter is the consistency of a thick cream.
Beat until smooth.
Pour about a soup spoon sized amount onto a preheated lightly greased frypan (You will need to start about medium high heat but after a few rounds you will need to drop it back to medium).
Flip with a spatula when the top is all bubbly (should be a lovely golden colour), and cook the other side.
Remove from pan and pile piklets up on a plate (cover with a paper towel so they don't go rubbery).
Serve with jam, honey or maple syrup etc.
Enjoy.
