Fruit & Savoury Pikelet Recipe

07/09/2018 By

Basic Pikelet Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup self-raising flour

2 tbs caster sugar

1 egg lightly beaten

3/4 cup milk

Method

Combine flour and sugar in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in egg and milk to make a thick, smooth batter.

Drop dessertspoons of mixture into a greased heavy-base pan. Cook until bubbles begin to appear on the surface of the pikelet. Turn and brown other side.

Do the following to make a fruit pikelet:

Substitute liquids for orange & mandarine juice or any fruit juice you prefer.
Grate rind of Mandarine or other citrus.
Cut up squares of Paw Paw & Pear (1cm size). Any fruit can be used.
You can add 2 tablespoons psyllium or oats or rolled rice to give a nice texture.  It swells up & makes them light & fluffy. I love coconut in sweet pikelets… & a dash of nutmeg & cinnamon.
Fruits I use when in my cupboard… apple, banana, custard apple, pineapple, passionfruit in the liquid, any berries, sultanas & currents.  Cook in the usual way.
Do the following to make a savoury pikelet:
Wander around your garden & choose lots of your favourite edible greens.
I use 2 new tops of elderberry, 2 kale, herbs, 2 nasturtium leaves, edible weeds, spinach, mother of herbs.
Blend green leaves with 1 cut of water.. strain… measure liquid to the recipe… add water if needed.
Finely cut up spring onions… [ or onion ], garlic, celery
I add 2 tablespoons psyllium.. or oats or rolled rice to give a nice texture. It swells up makes them light & fluffy.
You can add cheese & other ingredients if your diet allows… A dash of curry powder… be adventurous.
