In today's cooking, a pannikin is a measurement equivalent to half of a cup, or approximately 4 fluid ounces. It is a small unit of volume often used in recipes for liquids or dry ingredients. The term "pannikin" originates from Australian and New Zealand culinary traditions.

a cup. now you can ask 'how big is a cup'? Today a measuring cup is 8oz...unless you look at your coffee maker...then a cup is 6 oz. And if you take a coffee cup from your cupboard it is likely 10 ounces, while a tea cup is more likely in the 6 oz range.

Pannikin is not and was not ever a standard unit if measure. I would take a conservative guess at 4 ounces and adjust the quanity if needed.
