muffins
No need to worry about pre-heating the oven when you make muffins in your Kmart pie maker! Cooking times will vary from the recipe, so keep your eyes on these muffins as they cook. You’ll know they’re cooked through when a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
These berry and yoghurt muffins are sure to go down a treat, and we can’t get enough of these maple gingerbread muffins! And let’s not forget the classic blueberry muffin.
14
friands
Like muffins, these friand recipes are easily adapted to your Kmart pie maker. These almond and strawberry and almond friands are a great first try, or honey pistachio friands. Don’t forget to test with a skewer to see if they’re cooked through.
15
tarts
Whip up some of these delicious tart recipes in your Kmart pie maker! Recipes like these caramel tarts are perfect – they don’t even use pastry! Neenish tarts would also work well, as would these jam drop tarts or mixed berry tarts.
16
eggs
Don’t worry! You’re still reading that article about Kmart pie maker recipes! Yes – your Kmart pie maker is actually really good at making eggs. If you struggle to make poached eggs the traditional way you can crack an egg into you Kmart pie maker instead! Simply add a few teaspoons of hot water to your heated pie maker, crack an egg in and let it cook for 3-5 minutes. Once you’ve cooked your easy-peasy poached egg serve it on top of mixed mushrooms and smoked salmon for stunning brunch.
Your Kmart pie maker can also create the perfect cooked eggs to add to a bacon and egg roll. Follow the steps above but cook the egg for a little longer for a tender cooked egg that won’t drip all over the shop!

pikelets
So they won’t come out looking like these mini pancakes but this pikelet recipe will be delicious in your Kmart pie maker. Think of those adorable fat and fluffy dutch pannenkoeken. Add some bluberries to the batter, or serve with a generous drizzle of lemon juice and a sprinkle of sugar.

mini frittatas
This might be controversial to say but really, isn’t a frittata just a pie without pastry? It’s a no-brainer that your Kmart pie maker would make a delicious mini frittata. This spinach and feta mini frittata is a great place to start. You can pretty much toss your favourite ingredients in so why not give these corn and zucchini frittatas a whirl or even this tasty chicken and basil frittata recipe.
20
mini quiches
If a frittata is a pie without pastry then a quiche is somewhere in between – perfect for your Kmart pie maker. We love these goat’s cheese and zucchini flower mini quiches. Goat’s cheese with caramelised onion is also delightful, as are these mini ham and corn quiches.
21
pinwheels & scrolls
Experiment with these spinach and feta pinwheels when you next get a chance! We also have cheesymite scrolls and these ham, cheese and zucchini pizza scrolls to make in your Kmart pie maker!
22
crumpets
Crumpets are usually cooked on the stove top in an egg ring but we think these crumpets with rhubarb compote would fair pretty well in the Kmart pie maker! If you don’t love rhubarb so much we also have crumpets with berry compote.

Triple choc-chunk brownies
These brownies are lovely and moist on the inside and crunchy on the outside – just as a good brownie should be.
