Pikelets

A taste from the past! My great aunt used to make these and they were delicious spread with butter. They are a form of pancake but more like Scotch pancakes than Shrove Tuesday variety! I think these could count as savoury -perfect for afternoon tea- but I guess technically they are a form of cake. I don't know. Anyway, these quantities suit 4 hungry people. You'll be surprised at how many of these you can put away.

Recipe
Sift 150g self raising flour with 1 tbsp sugar. Add a pinch of salt.
Whisk 185ml milk and 1 egg, then add to dry ingredients, whisking until smooth.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Brush with a little melted butter.
Drop a few level tablespoons of the mixture into the pan and cook for 30 sec until it bubbles. Turn over and cook for 1 min till golden.
