Serves: Four
Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
-
- 1 egg
-
- 1 banana
-
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
-
- 3/4 cup milk
-
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
-
- 1 1/4 cups wholemeal self-raising flour
-
- 1 teaspoon margarine spread
-
- Strawberries and extra banana, to serve
Method
Break the egg into small bowl and, using a fork, whisk the egg. In a separate bowl, mash the banana and then add the sugar, egg, milk and vanilla essence. Stir in the flour and allow to sit for a few minutes until the flour absorbs some of the milk and the mixture thickens slightly.
Heat a frying pan over medium to high heat. Add the margarine spread and cook the mixture in 1/4 cupfuls. After about one and a half minutes, when bubbles appear on the uncooked surface, turn the pikelets over and cook the other side for a further two minutes. Put the cooked pikelets on a clean dry tea towel until all pikelets are cooked. Serve with strawberries or extra banana.
