Pikelets for healthy kids snacks
These banana pikelets are a good source of fruit and calcium for your children’s school snacks.
They are so cheap to make and quick to whip up. You can double up by making an extra batch, having some for a fun Sunday breakfast then sandwich them together with a small amount of butter and wrap them ready for the lunch box.
Ingredients
1 cup self raising flour
1 tablespoon of sugar
3/4 cup milk
1 egg
20g butter
1 banana (mashed)
1 tablespoon golden syrup
Lets Get Cooking!
Sift flour in a mixing bowl, add sugar and make a well in the centre. Add egg, golden syrup and milk then mix well. Put in mashed banana. Stir well with a wooden spoon.
Heat a large non-stick pan to medium heat. Drop on tablespoons full of mixture into the pan. Leave them enough room to spread. Cook for about 1 minute or until bubbles appear then flip them over. Give them no longer than 30 seconds on the second side. Cool on a wire rake.
When cool, butter 2 pikelets together then wrap and freeze in 2 pairs.
