Before I became a Mom, I underestimated the versatility of oats, especially when it came to the delightful oats pancake recipe. When introducing solids to my son, a friend suggested oats porridge for babies, but I wasn’t too enthusiastic about it. With great reluctance, I gave it a try, and from then on, there was no turning back. Oats became a part of our daily food, and when Kanika sent me her amazing oats pancake recipe, I tried it immediately, and it tasted yummy.

Recipe by Kanika Aggarwal Garg
Kanika has a masters in computer science and now a stay at home mom to 15 month cute little boy Onish 
She loves to cook and tries new and yummy recipes to make her fussy toddler to eat.
My daughter is 19 months old and still refuses to have textures like pancake and parathas or anything with even finely chopped veggies. She still insists on everything mashed. Ive repeatedly tried introducing textures from when she was 9 months old but she has mostly rejected them. Even things like biscuits that she likes she bites off a piece, sucks on it and spits it out. Im worried about how restricted her diet is becoming with only khichdi varieties and soups and porridges. Pls write an article on how to help toddlers accept textured foods. She’s got about 10-12 teeth already and she’s saying several words.
Thank you for the suggestion, we would try working on it. Kindly continue giving lots of finger foods. Self feeding is most important for increasing the feeding ability. Slowly baby would cope up. No worries.
Hello Hema

Yes dear, oats pancake can be given for your 9 month old baby. Kindly avoid salt while preparing.

Do the oats need to be roasted and then powdered or do you use the steel cut oats as it is and just powder them? Also does the oats powder need to be soaked?
Hi Neha you can use organic oats to powder and need not roast it. Also it need not be soaked to make the pancakes.
HI,
My baby is 8.5 months, till now i am giving her purred foods as still no teeth.. little erruptions i can see though but still she cant chew.So is it a good recipe to start, as i think it will be too dry for her she cant chew it. What do u suggest?
Thanks Hema.
The dish turned out so good. I even added boiled sweet corn mash to it and it tasted good.
My baby in fact most babies will prefer a lil moist consistency of their food ,few recipes are very dry So also if an accompaniment recipe is mentioned it would be great

Hello!!
I am a mama to be with GD. This morning I saw this recipe and I knew this just what I had to make for breakfast.
Ingredients- Check
Taste- Check
Tava heated well enough-Check
End result- Runny Pan cakes 🙁 I think I put too much water into making the dough. So then, I added some more gram flour and oats still no luck. I tired to make this into Paddu cakes but, I burnt them 🙁 🙁
Last resort- Had to eat wheat bread 🙁
Could you please tell me how much water I should add? I am a novice when it comes to cooking so I tend to follow exactly what’s suggested.
I would love to try this again because even with a runny, burnt cake it tasted so delicious.
Thank you!!! 🙂
Add water so that the consistency is of a dosa batter, add water little by little and mix the batter till you achieve the right consistency
HIya!!!! I tried this recipe today. My 10 month old son absolutely loved it.. had his dinner without any fuss..I am so thrilled. Thanks for sharing – I will keep looking for more such wonderful recipes 🙂
Happy to know that your little one loved it 🙂
