When we recently found ourselves with an oversupply of green apples, it was the perfect excuse to bake up some yummy treats. For something a little different I decided to add grated apple to our favourite pikelet recipe and the end result was a huge hit with both of my boys.
You just need a few ingredient to make these Thermomix Apple Pikelets and they make a great snack for the kids and are also lunchbox friendly.

Serve these pikelets warm with your choice of toppings - we love to eat ours with raspberry jam.
Recipe Notes
These Banana and Apple Pikelets are freezer friendly.
You can use any type of apples for this recipe.
I leave the apple skin on when making these pikelets, however you can peel them if you prefer.
if you find your mixture is too runny, add an extra tablespoon of self raising flour
If you manage to resist eating them all you can pop any leftovers into the freezer, which when stored in an airtight container will keep for up to 6 weeks.
We enjoyed our Apple Pikelets covered in sweet raspberry jam, but you can serve them on their own or with your favourite topping.

I made these into baked pikelets yesterday for my 2 boys.
I only used about half the sugar and added 2 white choc chips to the top of some of them.
Baked for about 8 mins on 160c
