Egg pancake for baby ready..
For toothless baby, mash the pancakes ( 3 or 4 pancakes ), add half banana, mash together and feed. ( I gave this way for my baby until she started teething ( from 7 to 9 months )
For teething baby or baby with 2+ teeth, cut into tiny pieces and feed. ( Please see video for how to give tiny pieces for baby )
These pancakes are so soft & yummy, babies can eat easily without chewing.
