I usually have Banana Pikelets on Sundays so this Sunday I decided to swap the bananas for apples and made apple pikelets. At first I was worried but it turned out well and tasted delicious. I used the Apple breakfast crumble recipe to make the poached apple. I omitted the chia seeds in this ingredients.
Ingredients
To Make the poached apple
4 red apples chopped
2½ cups water
½ tsp ground cinnamon
(Be careful with serving size, read note)
To Make the Apple Pikelets
1 cup self raising flour
½ tsp baking powder
1 red apple grated
1 tbsp. Honey
3/4 cup milk
1 egg
Honey or maple syrup to drizzle.
Method
To make the poached apple
Add the water, cinnamon and chopped apples in a sauce pan over medium heat. Cover with a lid and bring to boil. Once it boils reduce and simmer for 2 minutes.
After two minutes put the heat off. (Don’t spill the water, the apple will continue browning if it’s still pale or white.)
Set aside.
To make the apple pikelets
Place the flour and baking powder in one bowl.
In another bowl, whisk the grated apple, eggs, milk and honey.
Add the wet ingredients to the flour and continue to whisk until combines.
Put the mixture aside to set for 5-10 minutes.
Lightly grease a non tick pan on a medium low heat and use 1/4 cup to pour batter. Cook batter for two minute on each side or until bubbles form.
Once all pikelets are made, add the yogurt, poached apples and maple syrup or honey.
Note
Apple Pikelets serves 2
Poached apple serves 6. You cab reduce the ingredients by half or you can store the apples in a container and use it for breakfast the next day.
