Ingredients

1 cup (150g) self-raising flour, sifted

1 cup (250ml) milk

1 egg, lightly beaten

1 cup (120g) grated cheese

1/4 cup snipped chives

1/2 cup (120g) spreadable cream cheese

1 celery stalk, trimmed, finely diced

Method

1.Place flour in a bowl. Make a well in centre and add milk and egg. Whisk ingredients together from centre, gradually drawing in flour, until a smooth batter forms. Fold through grated cheese and chives.

2.Heat a non-stick frying pan on medium and spray with oil. In batches, cook tablespoons of batter for 2 minutes. Turn and cook for another minute. Remove from pan and continue with remaining batter. Set aside to cool.

3.Combine cream cheese and celery in a small bowl and season to taste. Spread cream cheese mixture over 10 pikelets and stack two together, cream cheese side up, then top with a plain pikelet to form five stacks. Serve.

Makes 15 Wipe down your frying pan with paper towel between batches to stop the pikelets becoming too brown.
