Description

A quick and simple recipe to create spinach fritters baby will love! The perfect baby led weaning lunch idea or ideal for batch cooking for snack on the go!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 140 grams of spinach
  • 2 egg
  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • 15 grams of parmesan
  • 1 tsp onion powder (optional)
  • 1 tsp black pepper (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add 140 grams spinach to a large frying pan with a little oil and cook until wilted.
  2. Once wilted, place in a bowl and leave to cool completely.
  3. Squeeze the excess moisture from the spinach and then chop it up into small pieces (using scissors)
  4. Add two eggs, parmesan, the chopped spinach and the onion powder and black pepper to a bowl and mix thoroughly with a fork.
  5. Add the plain flour and combine. The mixture should thicken.
  6. Heat oil in a frying pan on high heat and spoon two tablespoons of the mixture into the pan per fritter. I prefer to cook one fritter at a time, but you may be able to fit two or three fritters in the pan at once.
  7. Reduce the heat and after a minute or so, flip the fritter. Cook on the other side for a further 40-60 seconds, before transferring to a plate to cool.
  8. Leave to cool completely before serving to baby. Cut the fritters into strips for younger babies.
