Recommended Posts

but arent they scotch pancakes?

 

Scotch pancakes don't have the holes in them.

I always thought that crumpets were the "fat" round ones, and pikelets were also holey, but thin.

 

But then, I'm from the other side of the penines originally.

 

Same as me, and I'm from Sheffield.

My Grandmother ran a business in Brightside making pikelets and oatcakes and selling them to the steelworkers at all the neighborhood mills. Pikelets are unrisen crumpets. Oatcakes are flat and of bigger diameter. They are delicious fried with eggs and bacon for breakfast.
