What do you call these?

[smithy69]

The reason I ask is, I was at work today and this elderly lady asked where the pikelets were and I was like wtf are they haha, and she said the things you pop in the toaster with the holes in and then put butter on...

Then I was like ohhhh you mean crumpets!!!

Pikelets are a more Scottish pancake type configuration and therefore inferior.

They are crumpets. Doughy. These are pikelets. I'd never heard of them until my wife told me about them and I'd still call them scotch pancakes.

 

[Tamarc]

Never heard them being called "Pikelets" here in scotland

 

[hamba]

I'd call them crumpets but I didn't know them until I came to England many years ago. As a kid, growing up in Belfast, we refered to scotch pancakes as both pancakes and crumpets.

I've never heard of a pikelet 'till now.

Nice copy and paste :Clap:

OP's picture is a crumpet and pikelets are basically flattened crumpets that look similar to a pancake, never knew pancakes were were Scottish tho?
