Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine millet flour and baking powder.
  2. Add grated carrot and mild ground nutmeg; mix well for even flavor distribution.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat egg and whisk in unsweetened dairy-free milk.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry mixture, stirring gently until a smooth, thick batter forms. Rest for 5 minutes to let millet absorb moisture for soft texture.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and grease lightly with coconut oil or mild vegetable oil.
  6. Spoon tablespoons of batter into mini pancake bites about 2 inches wide, perfect finger-food size for toddlers.
  7. Cook 3-4 minutes until bubbles form and edges are set, then flip carefully and cook 2-3 more minutes until golden and cooked through.
  8. Transfer bites to a plate to cool slightly before serving.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature as a nutritious, dairy-free, and nut-free finger food snack or part of balanced toddler meals.
