What is this food item called??

Asked DH to get me crumpets. He got me crumpets. I didn't want crumpets.

I can't for the life of me think what they are called. Not quite pancakes, not quite crepes, and not quite crumpets either. Flat, round baked good with lots of airy holes in it.

Pikelet?

Potato cakes?

Scotch pancakes? Pikelets?

Pikelets?

Oatcake?

And at ...

Drop scone?

Drop scones?

Well I think you mean scotch pancakes

Giant we must be Scots twins ...

English muffins ?

Could you not post a photo?

I think pikelets

Scottish crumpets?

Pikelets?

Have my first LTB for getting you what you asked for when it was not at all what you actually wanted.

I cannot think what these flat holey things might be. Scotch pancakes, pikelets and English muffins all come to mind. But don’t have holes of the type you are talking about.

I’d love you know when you have remembered.

What we used to call a crumpet in Scotland is kind of a flat large pancake and one side is full of holes. I made some by mistake when doing normal scotch pancakes recently so it's along those lines

Drop scone pancakes? Thicker and fluffed than your average pancake. (And way better)

Oh, God. I hope you're not all waiting for the big reveal...

It was these. So, just pancakes really . I was sure they were called something different!

Gotta be piklets. Basically flat crumpets but much better.

This reminds me of the cutted up pear thread years ago. OP were you able to contain your disappointment or did you lie on the floor & scream?!

I was tempted to say yes, pikelets, to save embarrassment as I think they fitted the brief best.

Almost LTB after he kept telling me I just wanted pancakes.

Holding my hands up to this one!

And I was gona throw in enjera....

Omg, now I want pikelets...
