Plate Pancakes

Written by: Jeanette Blandford | Published on May 28, 2025

Quick, low-mess plate pancakes cooked right in your Suckie Scoop plate — naturally sweetened with banana and endlessly adaptable for little ones.

These plate pancakes are a super quick, convenient, minimal-mess breakfast cooked right in your Starting Solids Australia Suckie Scoop plate. We've used banana as the base here, but really the sky is the limit with the fruits and vegetables this would work with — sweet potato or pumpkin in place of the banana would make a delicious savoury option.

Without the sprinkles, these are suitable from 6 months. With sprinkles, we'd err on the side of caution and recommend 12 months and over.
6–9 months: Cut into strips that are easy for little hands to grip.
9–12 months: Offer in smaller pieces as pincer grip develops.
12 months+: Serve family-style with fruit and toppings to add.

Wheat (flour), egg and dairy (milk).

Allergen Substitutions

Egg free: use flax eggs or apple puree. Dairy free: use oat milk, breast milk or formula. Wheat/gluten free: use oat flour in place of the self raising flour.
