    Ingredients

    • Eggs

    • Milk

      125ml

    In a medium bowl, beat together eggs, ricotta cheese, oil and milk. Stir in rice flour, sugar, baking powder and salt to make a thick batter.

    STEP 2

    Drop from a mixing spoon onto a medium-hot, greased frying pan and cook until the top is full of small bubbles; turn and cook the second side for about 1 minute. Remove from pan and keep warm while cooking remaining pancakes.

    Tips

    To evenly cook gluten-free pancakes or pikelets at the low temperature needed, you must ‘season’ the pan before you commence cooking, even if it is a non-stick pan. To do this, melt a teaspoon of butter or margarine in the pan and heat until dark brown and slightly burned. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel and grease again with a small amount of margarine on a paper towel. Regulate your heat to medium and it is now ready to cook your pancakes or pikelets.
