Easy, delicious and healthy finger food, suitable from 9 months old and right up to adult! I make this as a quick portable lunch for my baby (no teeth), the kids and myself. You can add any vegetables you like, zucchini is a great one too.

Makes 15 small pikelets.

Ingredients

  • 100g Flour
  • ¼ teaspoon Bi-carb Soda
  • 150ml Milk
  • 1 Egg
  • 75g finely grated Carrot (approx. 1 carrot)
  • 4 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan Cheese
  • Butter for frying

Method

  • Sift flour and bi-carb into a mixing bowl, along with the egg and milk. Whisk thoroughly.
  • Add grated carrot and parmesan, and mix well.
  • Heat the butter in the pan until hot and then add small spoonfuls of pikelet mix into the pan.
  • When bubbles form in the pikelets, flip over.

Place cooked pikelets onto a paper towel until ready to eat! Can be served with a cheesy dipping sauce (see Béchamel sauce recipe) or some sweet chilli and mayonnaise.
