My latest obsession is trying out the different recipes on my cast iron paniyaram pan. The paniyaram pan also known as appe pan, is mainly used to make paniyaram/appe.

One of easiest and quickest recipe you can make on a paniyaram pan is- Egg bites. A dash of protein from eggs and complex carbs from oats, it makes for a quick snack or breakfast option.

Ingredients:

Eggs-2, whole

Onion-1, medium size/finely chopped

Tomatoes-1, medium size/ finely chopped

Rolled oats-3 tbsp

Black pepper-1 tsp

Green chili-1, finely chopped

Salt- as per taste.

Oil-1-2 Tsp

Procedure:
  • In a bowl, break in the 2 eggs and beat it till it fluffs up.
  • Add in the finely chopped onion, tomato, green chili and lastly the rolled oats. Mix properly and leave it aside for a few minutes.
  • Heat the paniyaram pan on medium flame, pour the oil and make sure it covers up every cup properly.
  • Once the pan has heated properly, pour in the egg batter and fill the 3/4th of the cup. Cover it with a lid and let it cook for 3-5 mins.
  • Flip the egg bites once done and let it cook for a while.
  • Serve hot with homemade ketchup or chutney for breakfast, kids tiffin or as a snack.

Do try the recipe out and share your feedback.

Happy cooking 🙂
