Banana & Blueberry Mini Pikelets
My nephew’s, Matty & Jack, love these ‘berry’ much, they go ‘bananas’ for them! These are great to make with the kids. Perfect for a family weekend breakfast or a lunchbox snack.

PREP: 10 MINS

1 egg, lightly beaten
¾ cup milk (cows milk or plant based for a dairy free option)

DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl, whisk together, banana, egg and milk. Sift in flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt and whisk until smooth.
Melt a little butter or coconut oil over medium heat in a frying pan. Drop a tablespoon of mixture into the pan and place a few blueberries onto the mixture. Do not overcrowd the pan, just do 4-5 pikelets at a time.
Bubbles should start to appear after a minute or two. Once bubbles appear, flip the pikelets and cook the other side until cooked through and golden brown.
Continue steps 2-3, until all batter is used.
NOTES:
This recipe will make big or small pikelets.
Great for breakfast, a snack or dessert.
These are freezer friendly.
If your kids are not keen on banana, use ½ cup of apple sauce instead.
