So another Bill Granger recipe from me (Yawn I hear you say ;-)), I always make something nice for breakfast at least once at the weekend and seeing as I was severly hungover yesterday I decided I better get myself out of bed and make something nice for himself this morning.
I did want to make pancakes but I had no buttermilk (and it was raining so I decided I didn't want those pancakes that badly anyway) so pikelets it was. These are very easy to make and very light despite the use of wholemeal flour which I normally find can be quite heavy in pancakes, the addition of so much baking powder lightens these really nicely, hope you like them!
So here's what you need
125g wholemeal flour
2 tsp baking powder
2tbsp raw cane sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
170ml milk
butter for greasing the pan
whatever toppings you like, I used lemon, butter and sugar but the husbag like maple syrup
So, sieve the flour and baking powder together, add the sugar and mix well.
Add the egg and milk and whisk until smooth
Heat the pan and brush with butter, and spoon tablespoons of the mixture on. Allow to cook for a couple of minutes until you see air bubbles on top and then turn over for another 30 seconds or so.
Enjoy

Those look fluffy and gorgeous! I suspect my other half would go for the maple syrup as well... Perfect weekend brunch :-)
