- Leite de Escolha – you can use any milk. I love coconut milk or almond milk, but if you are breastfeeding, your breastmilk is a great option.

- de extrato de baunilha – para dar sabor.

How To Make Baby Pumpkin Pancakes
It’s so easy to make your own baby pumpkin pancakes at home with only a few ingredients. All you need are:
- Make sure you are having some pumpkin puree on hand. You can use Canned pumpkin puree – a baby can or pouches are perfect for it or Purê de abóbora caseiro – follow my pumpkin puree baby recipe here se necessário.
- In a medium-size bowl, whisk the wet ingredients together: pumpkin puree, milk of choice – I love almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil.
- Finally, whisk in flour and baking powder until a slightly thick batter forms with a lovely orange color shade.
- Slightly oil a pancake griddle with oil spray. I am using a homemade oil spray bottle filled with avocado oil because it resists well to high temperatures, but coconut oil is also great. You can rub solid coconut oil on the griddle or non-stick pancake pan using a piece of absorbent paper.
- Heat the griddle on medium heat and spoon one tablespoon of batter per pancake to make hand-sized pancakes that babies can hold easily.
- Cook the pancakes for 2 to 3 minutes or until dry on the edges. Then, slide a spatula under the pancake and flip to the other side.
- Keep cooking for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until just set.
- Let them Cool down on a wire rack before offering them as finger food for your kids.
Armazenamento
You can store these baby pumpkin pancakes in the fridge for up to 3 days. Another option is to freeze the cooked pumpkin baby pancakes in zip-lock bags. Thaw the baby pancakes at room temperature for at least 3 hours before offering them to the kids.
Toppings
As your baby grows, add some toppings to these pumpkin pancakes to introduce new flavors and textures. Great ideas are:
- Baby chia seed jam – my recipe is fully sugar-free for babies under 1 year old.
- Peanut butter
- Manteiga de amêndoa
Perguntas frequentes
Pumpkin pancakes are safe to introduce as baby-led weaning from 6 months of age. They are made with only 5 wholesome ingredients.
Yes and no! It depends on the age of your baby because some kids can have an allergy to cinnamon, always ask your GP for recommendations if unsure. It will however add the most delicious flavor to the pancakes.
Other ideas to flavor the pancakes for older kids are to add 1-2 teaspoons of sweetener in the batter like these unrefined sugar options:
- Açúcar de coco
- Açúcar de cana não refinado
- Xarope de bordo

I have so many other baby-led weaning recipes that you can try with your little one. Below are my favorites for you to try.
Can I add an egg?
I don’t bake with eggs so I can’t recommend I am sorry.
could I omit the oil in the batter and use additional pumpkin or banana or even tahini?
You can but it will be gummy, and stick to the pan.
Hi. My daughter loves these- thank you! Would you have any oven baking recommendations for these instead of griddle?
Thank you, I never tried baking my pancakes recipes I guess if you drop the pancake on a cookie sheet lined with slightly oiled parchment paper, then you can bake them in preheated oven 350F (180C) until set – no sure of timing I would guess 15 minutes for small pancakes
Can you pre-make the mix and keep it in the fridge overnight to cook in the morning? Also, it seems the inside seems a bit sticky almost like it’s not cooked through but I cook them for a while so they have to be done! Any suggestions? Thank you!
Yes, you should be able to keep the batter in the fridge for a couple of days. Give it a good stir before making the pancakes, though. For the texture, the pumpkin makes it look rather moist inside, but it’s normal!
My 8 month old is a fan! Little dense even with the baking powder but I think I need to increase the heat next time to cook them through a little faster?
Obrigado!!
These are now my daughters absolute favorite – I’ve been making and freezing big batches for the week because she devours them! I put before I thought I need to increase the heat and that did just the trick. Thanks again for the recipe for my pumpkin- loving October baby.
Obrigado!
My girl loved these! I want to make them again and just try to make plain pancakes this time – I absolutely love the consistency of these…would it work the same if you omit just the pumpkin?
Obrigado!!
It might be a bit dry without it. You can use banana or applesauce instead.
My 14 month old and I thoroughly enjoyed these! Followed the recipe exactly. Thank you!
Do you think this would work with oat flour?
They might end up fragile and difficult to flip maybe use half half for better texture.
I ate these with my 10 month old and we’re both fans. I added some cinnamon for extra flavour.
I’m glad you both enjoyed them!!
My 3 year old helped me make these and he ate his whole plate – as well as my 8 month old! Gotta love a recipe they both enjoy!
