In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of self-rising flour and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Whisk them together until they are well combined.
In a separate bowl, crack open 1 large egg. Add 1 tablespoon of melted butter and 1/2 cup of milk. Whisk these ingredients together until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix. If the batter seems too thick, add a little more milk until you reach your desired consistency.
Place your non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Allow it to warm up for a couple of minutes. To check if it’s ready, sprinkle a few drops of water onto the pan; if they sizzle and evaporate, it’s time to cook your pikelets.
Using a ladle or a measuring cup, pour small amounts of batter onto the pan, forming rounds about 3 inches in diameter. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to look set.
Carefully flip the pikelets using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown. Remove them from the pan and keep them warm while you continue with the remaining batter.
Once all your pikelets are cooked, serve them warm with your choice of toppings.
