Pancakes without eggs

I have seen this posted a long time ago, but I wasn't worried about it then:o)

What happens if I just skip the egg when making pancakes?  Will they not rise?  Is there pancake batter that doesn't require eggs?

Why not just use eggs?  In the information from the pedi a scrambled egg or baby omelet (one egg no filling) are ideal first finger foods.  They just can't have raw eggs.

Look for 'complete' on the box.  Most of these only require water.  I think we used hungry jack complete.

What? Just not raw eggs? First off who feeds their infant a raw egg. Secondly aren't you suppose to wait until 12 months before giving egg yolks/or whites I forget which one.

Yes their is a pancake mix that only needs water it is called Pioneer Mills or something like that. We use it and they make fluffy pancakes and DD loves them.

That is what I thought!  eww.. I don't eat raw eggs anyways.  I know it was with some 9 month baby stuff I received. I also think some stuff from Pampers in the mail mentioned it.

My pedi said no eggs at all--no whites or yolks--until 12 months.

Yes, typically it's no eggs until a year.

If you make them yourself you can add in a little extra baking powder and you should be fine.  A little vinegar and baking soda will also help to get the lift w/o the eggs.  My friend uses flax seed for hers.  She's pretty darn close to a Vegan so no eggs for her at all.

Thanks!  I will try the extra baking powder first, hippy:o)

What a great idea, Hippy! Aren't the "complete" sets already made with eggs....

Yep, I just checked my box. Under ingredients it lists near the bottom: egg yolks, egg whites. And it says at the very bottom "Contains: wheat, milk, and eggs"

After this post I was totally craving pancakes.  We had the Aunt Jenimima (SP?) Complete and it said "dried whole eggs"  they sure did taste good!
