These were nice, but I’m wondering if the amount of brown sugar listed is correct? I used one tablespoon which was more than enough! Next time I’d probably cut it down further as the sultanas add plenty of sweetness too.

I left out the sugar and salt, added grated apple instead (and cooked them in a little unsalted butter). They were delicious and my 11mo loves them!! Great recipe 🙂

Yum!! Just made these this morning, such a great weekend brekkie! My 15mo ate 2 (I ate 2 and was full so I don’t know how she managed to eat 2!!) and my Mr Fussy Pants 2yo ate 1.5 which is a great effort for him!! I must confess we didn’t use any sugar in the pancakes themselves, but did add a splash of maple syrup after for the kids.

these healthy pancakes work great. i used 1 tbsp of coconut sugar instead of brown sugar and cut out the sultanas as I wanted to serve with jam. plenty sweet. thank you!

Win!! My fussy eater couldn’t inhale these fast enough. I used whole meal spelt and grated apple. I replaced the sugar with rice syrup. A bit delicate to cook with spelt. Low and slow but fantastic. Thanks.

I am keen to make these for my son who has an egg allergy. I normally replace an egg with a chia seed/water mixture, however, am wondering whether a banana or half a banana would be better for this mixture? Maybe take out the brown sugar as I would use one of my very attractive looking black bananas from the freezer so they would be quite sweet. Anyone’s input would be great, thanks!!

Thankyou for another wonderful recipe! I made these for my 9mo twin boys this morning, even my reluctant less confident twin 1 loved them and ate a whole pancake. I substituted the sugar for a whole mashed up banana instead. Just perfect in sweetness. Thanks, we love your page.

Hey I just made these up with what was left in my pantry (1/2 cut steel cut oats and 1/2 cup oats with dried goji berries). I also left out the salt. And I blitzed the whole batter before making these as my baby is only 8 months old with three teeth. I didn’t know how he would manage the sultanas. I think they taste delicious as is. I made 23 litthe pancakes and 3 big ones. Can’t wait for my baby to taste them now!

My fussy eater LOVES these! I substitute chopped up prunes for sultanas and add a ripe banana instead of the sugar. When we were dairy free they worked just as well with soy milk. Thank you for your great recipes!

Made these for my 6 month old and he loved them. I left out the sugar, salt and saltanas thought. I added vanilla extract and poached pears instead. They were prefect!

I left out the sugar and just brushed the tops very lightly with honey when they were done. They were very nice and my little one loved them.

Lovely but I found 2 teaspoons of baking powder too much. I kept wondering what the awful after taste in my mouth was. Tried just 1/2 a teaspoon today and they tasted much better!
