How to make fluffy pikelets

Pikelets are yum fluffy things that you eat.

Have you ever wondered how to make pikelets?

First you need to wash your hands.

Next you need to get the ingredients like 1 cup of flour, 1 tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp salt, 1 egg, ¼ cup sugar and ¾ cup of milk approximately.

Then you sift the dry ingredients into a bowl and beat the egg and the sugar together in another bowl. Add the milk and the egg and sugar together so it is smooth and fluffy.

Finally you heat the pan up, then you put the mixture in the frying pan and wait until they have bubbles on the top. Then flip it over and wait until it is golden and then flip it out and eat it.
