Pumpkin Pancake Fingers for Babies (7 months+)

Pumpkin purée keeps these small oat-and-egg pancakes moist. The batter is simple, but a low-heat cook and a check through the centre matter more than the clock.

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Whisk the egg with plain pumpkin purée, then stir in the oat flour until evenly mixed. Let the batter stand briefly if it seems very thin.

  2. Spoon small, thin pancakes into a lightly oiled nonstick pan over low to medium-low heat. Turn gently once the underside holds together.

  3. Cook until the centre is fully set with no wet egg batter, then cool and cut into soft finger-sized strips.

Serving by Age

Serve tender strips that squash between your fingers. Check the middle of a test pancake: there must be no wet batter. If the edges become dry or crisp before the centre cooks, lower the heat and make the pancakes thinner.

7 months+

This recipe is listed for 7m+, so the 6m+ field does not recommend serving it earlier. Within the listed age range and when your baby can manage the texture, serve pancake strips baby can grasp.

9 months+

Serve small pieces.
