Discuss!?!!

Imo pikelets win assuming you have more of them coz they smaller.

Pancakes. You're able to get a nicer filling.

Pancakes with sugar & lemon > *

Googling away it appears so.

Pikelet? ...you learn something new everyday.

Pikelets aren't crumpets.

Pikelets are like little pancakes basically, imagine king size mars bars are pancakes and fun size are pikelets k.

Pikelet on Wikipedia:

A British regional dialect word variously denoting a flatter variant on crumpet or muffin

Oh well, now I know!

Pancakes win though. Blueberry and sugar... mmm

Pancakes because you can have them savoury, sweet, stuffed and a different fillings.

My 2 year old son gives the Pikelet vote.

meh uk wikipedia is wrong imo. Growing up in australia and pikelets are small pancakes.

You can get the same spreads on pikelets, its just more exciting having little versions of pancakes thats why pikelets are better.

Although pancakes are good coz u can roll em up and put it all in your mouth which is good on occassion to.

Blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and streaky bacon.

FNGsam · 9 Sep 2010 at 20:52

but cybermyk wouldnt it be better to have lots of little bite sized versions of the blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and bacon?

You can with a crumpet, I have them with cheese, marmite, jam, syrup and just about everything you can put on a pancake.

I prefer the little scotch pancakes though. The pancake day pancakes do nothing for me.
