Ingredients

Method

1.Sift flour into a large bowl. Stir through sugar and lime zest. Make a well in centre of the mixture.
2.Whisk coconut milk and egg yolks in a jug. Whisk into flour mixture until combined.
3.Using an electric beater, beat egg whites in a large, clean bowl until stiff peaks form. Using a large metal spoon, gently fold through batter mixture.
4.Melt a little butter in a large frypan on medium. Working in batches, spoon 2-tablespoonful measures of mixture into pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles appear on surface and begin to break, and underside is golden. Turn and cook for a further 1-2 minutes or until cooked through. Repeat with remaining mixture, adding butter to pan as required.
5.Using an electric beater, beat ricotta, icing sugar and lime juice in a bowl until light and fluffy.
6.Serve pikelets with ricotta mixture, flaked coconut, raspberries and a dusting of icing sugar.

For pikelets that are also lactose-free, replace the ricotta topping with a store-bought, soy-based yoghurt.
