  • CREPE PIZZA PANCAKE TUESDAY 🍕🥞 FOLLOW @babyledfeeding for easy baby led weaning recipes that you can also eat as a busy parent too!

    This is one of the best Pancake Tuesday recipes I’ve ever made. It’s so quick and easy and amazing if you are a busy mum and don’t want to stand at the cooker flipping pancakes for hours…which usually is what happens in my house.

    As a baby led weaning finger food, cut into thin strips, making sure the peppers are really soft, then serve with a side of fruit and a preloaded spoon with something like thick Greek yogurt.

    All of the ingredients are from your local @dunnesstores. Comment RECIPE and I’ll send the recipe straight to your DMs.
