Now for the Recipe


Makes approximately 20 depending on the size of the pikelet
What you need:
¾ cup of Chickpea Flour
¾ cup of Rice Flour
½ teaspoon of Baking Powder
1 tablespoon of Olive Oil
1 tablespoon of Coconut Oil
1 – 2 teaspoons of honey
1 teaspoon of Organic Vanilla Essence
2 eggs beaten
2 tablespoons of Organic Coconut Plain or Vanilla Yoghurt
½ – ¾ cup of Organic Almond, Coconut or Soy Milk
Whisk together with a fork or electric blender
What to do
Add 1 – 2 teaspoons of Olive oil to a stainless-steel frying pan, as oil becomes heated, slowly move oil around the pan to cover the base
Use a tablespoon to drop a spoonful at a time of mixture into the pan. When small air bubbles appear on the surface of the pikelett batter, usually after 1 ½ minutes, they should be ready to turn over, being golden colour on the base. Once turned over, cook for a further minute, then remove to a plate and cover each batch paper towel.
Continue cooking the rest of the pikelet batter until all batter has been cooked. Placing paper towel between each batch. You will need to add an extra spoon of olive oil for each batch you cook.
They make a great breakfast with berries and yogurt on top, or instead of toast with vegemite, peanut or almond paste, honey or organic jam spread.

Mine get eaten within a few days, so I just store them in the fridge. They can be stored in fridge for up to 4 days.
