I shouldn’t be this excited about pancakes! I had every intention of posting my normal buckwheat pancakes recipe (which contains egg and milk) but so many people mailed me about kids with allergies that I wanted to change it to suit everyone yet still keep the pancakes looking and tasting the same. I made up 4 different batches with various milks and oils and these definitely are the winner. Most kids love pancakes and these barely ever make it to my freezer and are devoured on the spot. As a first food they have been a hit from the start. They are super quick to make, easy for your baby to hold and are really nutritious.

Pancakes are great for Baby Led Feeding especially when they are loaded with the goodness of buckwheat and fresh fruit. Homemade baby led weaning recipe.

Ingredients

1 Cup Buckwheat Flour
2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
1 Cup Milk substitute with soy or almond milk for dairy free

Metric - US Customary

Method

Add buckwheat flour, baking powder to a mixing bowl
In a separate jug mix together the milk, egg, melted unsalted butter and maple syrup
Or if you are dairy and egg free just mix the soy/almond milk with the melted coconut butter
Make a well in the middle of your flour mixture and slowly whisk your chosen liquid mixture to the flour until it is smooth and completely combined
Add the raspberries to the mix by just squeezing through your hands
Its really messy but it gives the perfect amount of juice and berry bits. You can also just use a masher.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium heat
For each batch of pancakes we want to melt about 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter or about a teaspoon of olive oil
Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of batter into the pan
Cook until you see bubbles forming (about 1-2 minutes)
Flip over and cook the other side
Serve each pancake to your little one with a drizzle of maple syrup and 2 fresh raspberries

Recipe Notes & Tips

Cook the entire batch of pancakes before freezing. Then slip a little parchment paper in-between each one. This prevents them from sticking to each other. Reheat in a toaster.
