Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the orange juice and sugar until well combined. (2 minutes)

02

Step

In a separate bowl, sift together the self-rising flour and salt. This ensures a light and airy texture for the pikelets. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough pikelets. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax and creates a tender crumb. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray to prevent sticking. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Drop spoonfuls of batter onto the hot skillet, forming small, round pikelets. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Cook for about 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip carefully with a spatula. (4 minutes)

08

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy the fresh, citrusy flavor of these orange pikelets!

For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of orange zest to the batter.
If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
These pikelets are best served fresh. However, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving.
