Baking pikelets for an Art Deco morning tea





Noah, Ataahua and Paige wanted to help me make pikelets for morning tea. We were aiming for a more 'traditional' morning tea rather than sandwiches. Pikelets with cream and jam are an olden day treat, but still a favourite today. The children helped me to take the ingredients and bowl to the art room table. We got started with our recipe, and I had three wonderful helpers. Paige stirred the eggs and sugar. Ataahua wanted to help put the heaped table spoons of flour in to the bowl, and Noah was keen to mix it really fast once all the ingredients were in. After all the measuring and mixing, I baked them in the electric frying pan. Just before morning tea, we spread with margarine, jam and whipped cream. The children thought it was a very tasty treat for morning tea.
