Raspberry Banana Pancakes

These raspberry banana pancakes are perfectly sweet with no added sugar, and super simple to make!

My son loves a pancake, and these were a huge hit! All naturally sweetened with the fruit, plus the batter is super quick to throw together! A great option to use up any berries that look close to spoiling too.

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 egg, dairy, and wheat. DF milk and GF flour can sub in (almond flour not recommended!)

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 4 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.

SUBSTITUTES & ADD INS

Applesauce can sub in for banana, around 1/2 cup for 1 whole banana (you might need to reduce milk amount)

TOOLS USED/RECOMMENDED

Small spatula – I find these easiest to use when flipping small pancakes or other small fritters for baby

Masher – I like this one because it doesn’t get stuck in the drawer!
