Bananas boast:

• High fibre – great for gut health!
• Tons of potassium – helps to regulate fluid and is good for healthy heart function
• Energy boosting properties – well needed for those toddlers who are constantly on the go!

How to make banana oat pancakes for baby

1. In a medium bowl, mash a banana with a fork until it makes a thick paste. The riper the banana, the better.

2. Crack two eggs into the bowl and combine with the banana until frothy.

3. Add the oatmeal, peanut butter and flaxseed if using. Thoroughly combine.

4. Heat an oil with a teaspoon of oil and ladle in a quarter of the mixture.

5. Spread the batter out with the back of a spoon so it is quite thin.

6. After a couple of minutes, flip the pancake and fry on the other side.

7. Repeat a further three times.

How to serve these banana oat pancakes to baby

I served these banana oat pancakes on Munchkin White Hot plates so I knew when they were cool enough to serve.

These banana oat pancakes are so soft that they break up as soon as they go in your mouth. Dex loved the taste and ate two of the pancakes while I ate the other two.

How do you store banana oat pancakes?

When it comes to ensuring the food you batch make for baby led weaning stays fresh, it is imperative that you use an airtight container.

As soon as I decided to start down the baby led weaning route and knew I’d be batch preparing lots of things, I invested in a large pack of air tight containers to keep all my goodies! The ones below are perfect for keeping things like batch made pancakes, waffles and banana bread.
