Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 4 ounces jarred baby food (any fruit or vegetable flavor of your choice)
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, mix the jarred baby food, milk, egg, and melted butter until smooth.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Avoid overmixing; a few lumps are okay.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Step 5
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread gently, if needed, to form a circle.
Step 6
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Step 7
Flip, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Step 9
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dollop of extra jarred baby food for added flavor!
