Beat eggs, sugar, golden syrup and some of the milk (I added 1/3 of the milk).

Add flour, salt and baking powder alternately with the rest of the milk.

Lastly, add melted butter and stir through.

Batter should not be too thin, so add more flour or less milk if necessary.

Grease griddle iron (or frying pan) sparingly and don't have too hot. Do not turn until they begin to bubble. One dessert spoon full of batter makes a nice sized pikelet.
