High Protein Ricotta Pancakes

AGE APPROPRIATE: 3 meals a day (once tolerating egg and dairy)

MAKES: 8 pancakes

These are so yummy, high in protein, healthy fats and carbohydrates- the perfect balanced meal that will leave you and your little one full for longer! I love sharing these with my children especially on a school morning because they set them up for a great day.

They contain two allergens – eggs and dairy – so they are suitable to eat once tolerating both allergens. You can also make the batter and keep it in the fridge or freezer and cook fresh the next morning.
