So, I’m in the kitchen, as I type, making pikelets (mini-pancakes) for Ruby.
I’m the cook so I got to taste the first one, hot off the press so-to-speak and it was YUM!
Here is the recipe:
Ingredients
125g (1 cup) wholemeal plain (all-purpose) flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoons raw sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 ripe banana, mashed
1 tablespoon honey
170ml (2/3 cup) milk
Spray oil for greasing the pan
Method
Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl. Add the sugar and stir to combine. Mash the banana in a separate bowl, add the egg and milk & honey and whisk. Add to the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth. Preferably add mixture to a squeezy bottle.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and spray lightly with oil. Squirt tablespoons of mixture into the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, until bubbles appear on the surface. Turn the pikelets over and cook for another 30 seconds.
These are really good for snacks on the go, Ruby loves them!

I love making a double batch of pancakes so that we have lots of leftovers. My husbands likes to eat them cold out of the fridge, and will grab a couple on his way out the door. They make great toddler food too! I like that your recipe has mashed banana in it, I will have to try that.
