If you need a quick and easy breakfast your toddler will love, you need to try these banana oat blender pancakes!
Breakfasts can be chaotic around here since we have to get my toddler ready for school (and he wakes up starving!!) This breakfast comes together super quickly, and is made with our favorite oats. I was lucky enough to collaborate with them for this recipe!! Hope you love it!
BABY LED WEANING
This would be a great recipe to serve babies starting at 6 months, once they’ve been safely introduced to the allergens in the recipe. For younger babies, typically it’s best to serve bigger pieces since those are easier for them to hold. Once they develop the pincer grasp (pointer and thumb pinching together), then you can start to give them smaller pieces.
For information on how to safely serve foods to babies depending on their age (plus so much more), I recommend Solid Starts. The app is free and has tons of information!
ALLERGENS
This recipe has eggs and dairy (can easily be a non-dairy milk!).
If you’d like to try it with an egg replacer, this one available online at Target. This post highlights other ideas for egg substitutes in recipes.
STORAGE
I stored these in the fridge for 3 days, then transferred to the freezer. They can stay in the freezer for 2-3 months.
To freeze I would line a baking sheet with foil or parchment then lay in a single layer and place in the freezer. Once frozen (give it a few hours) you can transfer to another container. This way they are individually frozen rather than all stuck together in one huge block!
To reheat I would either thaw in the fridge overnight then toast or microwave, or just toast or microwave from frozen.
TOOLS USED/RECOMMENDED
Small spatula – I find these easiest to use when flipping small pancakes or other small fritters for baby
