Ingredients
- 1 cup wholemeal self-raising flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbs sugar
- 1/2 tsp vinegar
- 1 cup reduced-fat milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Variations

Make gluten free by swapping the flour for a self-raising gluten free variety and using a gluten free baking powder (available in the baking section of major supermarkets).
Method
1. Mix dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. Mix wet ingredients in a jug.
3. Use a whisk to gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry.
4. Heat a little oil in a large frypan.
5. Use a large spoon or small measuring cup to pour equal sized dollops of batter into the pan. Drop about 8 blueberries in each pikelet.
6. Cook on a medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until you see bubbles come to the surface and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook on the other side for another 2-3 minutes. Repeat till all pikelets are cooked.
Storage instructions: As these are 100% wholemeal flour, they are best eaten on day of cooking. But they freeze really well and defrost quickly in the lunchbox or microwave.
Freezing instructions: Lay pikelets in a single layer on a plate or tray and freeze solid. Then transfer to a sealed bag or container.
