Comments
I like these as a gluten-free option.
I used just under the amount of "optional" (raw) sugar. Also used soy milk.
The mixture was way too thick initially so I added another 100mL soy milk, which created a pikelet density.
In a good quality non-stick pan I didn't have to use oil / butter, and they turned very well.
Thanks for the recipe.
