Ingredients

  • 1/2 ripe pear, peeled and grated
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1 pinch baking powder
  • 1 pinch cinnamon (optional)

Preparation

  1. Peel and finely grate the pear until very soft and juicy.

  2. In a bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and grated pear until well combined.

  3. Stir in the flour and baking powder to form a smooth, thick batter.

  4. Heat a non-stick pan over low heat and spoon small dollops of batter into mini pancakes.

  5. Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until fully set and lightly golden.

  6. Allow pancakes to cool to lukewarm before serving, then mash or cut into soft finger-sized pieces as appropriate.

Serving by Age

Offer pliable thin strips rather than firm small round pancakes; check for wet batter.

8 months+

This recipe is listed for 8m+, so the 6m+ field does not recommend serving it earlier. Within the listed age range and when your baby can manage the texture, mash the soft pancake bites with a little water or an appropriate milk for a smoother texture when needed.

9 months+

Serve as soft, finger-sized pancake pieces that baby can grasp easily; ensure they are very soft and moist.
