*Not bad, but perhaps a flawed recipe*I didn't have an issue with thin batter.But: There isn't enough in this recipe to activate the baking soda, which is why they cook flatter than your average pikelet. While milk does cause leavening to some degree, you would be better replacing some of that milk with something like buttermilk. Of course, the real solution would be to use baking powder! More rise, and less of that baking soda taste.

Batter too thin. It didn't work for me. Need the eggs and sugar beaten till thick to give it some substance. I didn't have metal rings maybe this would have helped.

Reviewer

after seeing these reviews, I'll go with my usual recipe which I can right down here:Mix 1/2 cup of milk and 1/2 teaspoon of vinegar (set aside to sour). Sift 1 cup of plain flour 2 teaspoon of baking powder 1/4 teaspoon of baking Soda and 3 tablespoons of sugar together.Add 1 egg to the sour milk whisk it. Add sour milk and egg to the flour whisk well until smooth- no lumps! Add 1 tablespoon of melted butter and stir in. Rub frypan with a little butter heat on medium. Drop tablespoonful lots onto hot frypan. When bubbles show, flip over and cook other side.

Method

Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix gently until the dry ingredients have mixed with the wet ingredients.

Heat a little oil in a frying pan.

Place spoonfulls of the batter (making them into circles - you can use a metal ring) into the hot pan

When the pikelets start to bubble, flip them carefully & cook on the other side for a minute.

Place cooked pikelets on a paper lined plate unil ready to serve.

Enjoy hot, with drizzled with Chelsea Syrup.
