For babies just starting solids around 6 months, cut pancakes into finger-sized strips to match their palmar grasp

  • 3
    Lightly grease a nonstick pan and heat over medium-high heat
  • 4
    Drop 1 to 2 tablespoons of batter onto the pan
  • 5
    Once the pancakes are cooked enough to slide a spatula underneath without breaking, flip and cook the other side until golden brown
  • 6
    Allow them to cool slightly before serving with your little one’s favourite toppings
  • 7
    Buon appetito!
  • Storage

    Store cooled pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days

    For freezing, place them individually on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 2 months

    To reheat, use a toaster or microwave until warmed through
