Recipe: Perfect Pikelets


My Nana was the best baker I knew. Sunday lunch at her house was sure involve some of her yummy homemade treats. Pikelets were one of her specialties and although I have inherited her recipe I am yet to make them quite as good as her (although they come pretty damn close if I do say so myself!).

But lakes are peaceful and still. The perfect tone to start the new year on, don't you think?
