  • Egg
  • Wheat

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup cooked, peeled sweet potato, smoothly mashed
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp whole-wheat flour
  • 1–2 tbsp water, as needed
  • 1 tsp olive oil for the pan

Let’s make it

  1. Whisk the sweet potato, egg, and flour together. Add enough water to make a thick, spoonable batter.
  2. Lightly oil a nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Make small, thin pancakes and cook on both sides until fully set, with no wet batter. Check that the center reaches 160°F (71°C).
  3. Cool before serving. Cut into soft strips or mash into a moist texture that suits your baby’s feeding skills.

A little serving note: Timing assumes the sweet potato is already cooked. Pancakes should squash easily between your fingers; remove hard or crisp edges.
