Banana Oatmeal Pancakes for Baby {Baby Cereal Pancakes}
Servings: mini pancakes
If your baby is ready for solid foods, you'll definitely want to learn how to make baby pancakes with baby oatmeal! These baby oatmeal pancakes for baby are easy, nutritious, and made with simple ingredients your baby will love.
Ingredients
- 1 medium overripe banana
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons baby oatmeal
- Pinch of cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Using a fork, mash the banana in a shallow bowl. Whisk in the egg until combined with banana. Stir in baby oatmeal and cinnamon (if using) and mix until combined.
- In a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, heat a bit of coconut oil or spray pan with cooking spray.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop the pancake mixture into the frying pan to form mini pancakes. The mixture makes about 8 mini pancakes.
- Cook for 2-4 minutes on one side, or until firm enough to flip. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown. Serve plain or with applesauce, berries, almond butter or peanut butter.
Notes
- Use an overripe banana (the brown spotty kind) for best results. Very ripe bananas tend to be sweeter and have a better texture for mashing.
- Use a heaping tablespoon of pancake batter for each pancake. Try not to spread out the batter too much on the frying pan, or the pancakes will turn out too thin and flimsy and may be more difficult to flip.
- If the pancakes are browning too quickly on the outside, turn down the heat slightly and cook until pancakes are cooked through.
- When flipping the pancakes, use a thin spatula and gently nudge the pancakes onto the flipper. Carefully flip them as they can be a bit delicate.
