  • I found two recipes for Scottish Pancakes ------------------------------------ #1: Ingredients 4 oz self raising flour 1/4 teaspoon of salt 1/2 oz of margarine 2 oz of sugar 1 egg (beaten with 4 tablespoons of milk) 6 drops of fresh lemon juice The above makes 12 pancakes Mix flour and salt in basin, rub in the margarine. Mix in the sugar. Add the beaten egg, milk and flavouring to make a smooth batter. Bake 2 or 3 at a time by dropping a tablespoon for each scone on to a hot well greased girdle. Bake both sides for 3 minutes. ----------------------------- #2: Ingredients 8 oz plain white flour 2 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda Large pinch of salt 1 tablespoon castor sugar 2 tablespoons oil 1 egg Milk to mix Preparation Method: Makes 12 pancakes Heat the griddle and grease lightly. Sift all the flour and bicarbonate of soda into a bowl. Add in the castor sugar, oil, egg and a little milk. Stir into the flour and add enough milk to make a thick creamy mixture, approximately the consistency of very thick double cream. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the hot griddle and cook until they bubble on top. Turn and cook on the other side until golden brown. While cooking the rest of the mixture store the cooked pancakes between a small folded towel. Serve the warm pancakes with butter and preserves.
  • G'day babyccat, Thank you for your question. These pancakes are known elsewhere as Scottish or Scots and in Scotland and Ireland as drop-scones, pancakes or girdlecakes. They are known as drop cakes because you drop the batter on the griddle. They are known as pikelets in Australia. I have attached sources for your reference including recipes.
