Buttermilk pikelets with strawberries

Buttermilk pikelets with strawberries are a delightful and easy-to-make breakfast or snack option. These fluffy mini pancakes pair perfectly with the natural sweetness of fresh strawberries, making them a treat for both kids and adults. With just a handful of ingredients and a few simple steps, you'll have a delicious and satisfying dish ready in no time.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup self-raising flour
72g
2 tsp sugar
10g
1/2 cup buttermilk
120g
1 egg
50g
1 short spray cooking spray oil
0.30g
2 cups strawberries
320g

Instructions:

1. Prep the Ingredients:
- Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice them if you prefer smaller pieces for your topping.
- Gather all the other ingredients.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour and sugar until they are well combined.
3. Add Wet Ingredients:
- Pour the buttermilk into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Crack the egg into the same bowl.
- Whisk the mixture until smooth. The batter should be thick but pourable.
4. Heat the Pan:
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
- Lightly spray the pan with cooking spray oil to prevent the pikelets from sticking.
5. Cook the Pikelets:
- For each pikelet, pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the pan. You can cook multiple pikelets at a time, depending on the size of your pan, but be sure to leave some space between each one.
- Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.
- Carefully flip each pikelet with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown.
6. Serve:
- Transfer the cooked pikelets to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter.
- Once all your pikelets are cooked, plate them up and generously top with the sliced strawberries.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve the buttermilk pikelets immediately and enjoy them warm!

Tips:

- Ensure the buttermilk and egg are at room temperature for a smoother batter.

- Do not overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay and will help keep the pikelets fluffy.

- Use a non-stick pan or griddle to make sure the pikelets do not stick.

- Cook the pikelets on medium heat to avoid burning the outside while leaving the inside undercooked.

- Use a tablespoon to pour the batter onto the pan for evenly sized pikelets.

- Serve the pikelets immediately with a side of freshly sliced strawberries and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for added sweetness.

Buttermilk pikelets with strawberries are an easy and delicious way to start your day or enjoy as a midday snack. By following these simple steps and tips, you can create a fluffy and flavorful treat that everyone will love. Enjoy them fresh off the griddle with a side of juicy strawberries for a delightful culinary experience!
