My DS loves these grain-free apple pancake rings (from book Beautiful Babies).

He also loves a regular buckwheat pancake mix from Whole Foods that I add blueberries or bananas to...

Also, use applesauce instead of the oil.

I use a multigrain or whole wheat pancake mix (Hogkins mills has no sugar, trader joes is pretty low). Add extra eggs for protein, grated carrots or canned pumpkin to make it sweet.
Or any other veggies.

Works great and baby loves it!

one 6 oz cup of greek yogurt, any flavor (I used peach) - stir it up, crack an egg in there and stir that up

in a bowl, mix 1/2 cup of flour and 1 tsp baking soda. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix.

I doubled the recipe for the 4 of us so we would have a couple left over. I also thinned the batter with water to the desired consistency to make them easier to cook all the way through without over-browning.

Yummy and packed with protein.


And yogurt is full of sugar. Flavored greek yogurt has a ton. Sigh.

Pancakes are low in sugar. Why feed your kid crappy tasteless food when booby milk is very sweet.

These are great. There's 2 Tbsp sugar but you can cut down or leave it out.

I actually had a friends who was feeding her infant low-fat food (mind you her kids were 10 months and underweight).


Kids (and everyone) need fats in the diet. No one needs added sugar.

Kids need good fats, not added sugar. Do people really believe this?

That said, sugar makes pancakes yummy and a little bit won't be the end of the world.
These are my favorite, an I guess you can leave out the sugar: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/instant-pancake-mix-recipe.html

Feed your kid regular pancakes that you make for the rest of your family. You can mix fruit flavored yogurt to "flavor" them - we do that on occasion.

On my third kid now and will admit that my 10 month old gets chocolate chip pancakes on occasion like the rest of the kids. Don't judge me.

Just make pancakes as you normally would and hand them over.

BEST pankcake recipe ever (thanks, Martha Stewart):

1 Cup Flour
2 Tbsp Sugar (or leave it out)
2 tsp Baking soda
1/4 tsp salt

Separately mix
2 Tbsp melted butter
1 egg
1 Cup milk

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and mix until just combined (a few lumps are ok). Then cook.

If you want to add fruit, pour the pancakes onto a griddle, and add the fruit to the uncooked side, then flip.

Can anyone share an easy, sugar-free recipe for pancakes that you give to your older infants who are learning to eat with fingers? Preferably something that I can mix fruit into?
