Weetbix pancakes
Born from the need to use up crumbles from the bottom of the packet, these turned out beautifully. My youngest loved them, my eldest, not so much!
They taste very much like the Weetbix so definitely for those that enjoy the taste. It could be a great bridge between a child having them in a bowl for breakfast and eating in another guise.
Changing up foods already eaten is a great way to gently expand what gets eaten. It may also be a way to add eggs, for example, into the diet.
Recipe
2 Weetbix (equates to approx. 35gms crumble)
½ cup flour (I used whole meal)
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1 cup of milk (I added extra towards the end as it got too thick)
½ tbs butter
I don’t add sweetener to my pancakes but if that’s usual then use ½ tbs of honey/maple syrup
– I put everything in the food processor to mix
– Fry in a little butter at a medium-high heat until browning. Flip and cook the other side
These will keep reasonably well so can refrigerate to serve the following day or so
