      I needed quick recipe, was not until I made a batch with this recipe and had my first bite..... No salt! Must always have a pinch of salt in picklets, for that error 4 out of 10

      This is the exact recipe I use. I'm a Kiwi living in Canada. I like them cooled with butter, raspberry jam and sometimes whipped cream. My wife's favourite way of eating them is fresh from the griddle with butter melting on them and my son's favourite way is hot with butter and golden syrup. Incidentally, most Americans use "table syrup" which is a sort of artificially maple-flavoured sugar syrup. Only a minority of them use the real thing. Canadians are far more likely to use the real stuff.

      Very easy to follow and doesn't take long to make, just that it was a little bit runny but it was all good and yummy and smooth. Thumbs up from me and my husband. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

      I think she meant a lot of americans enjoy it with maple syrup

      80% of the world production of maple syrup comes from Quebec not "America", so Canadian would be preferable. c.w.
