If you’ve been looking for a quick, nutrient-dense wrap that feels fun for kids and easy for you, these easy 3 ingredient spinach wraps are it! With just eggs, spinach, and oats, you can blend up a bright green batter that cooks into a soft, flexible wrap. Rebrand it as a “green tortilla,” "monster wrap," "turtle roll," “Hulk wrap,” or even a silly name your toddler picks, sometimes a fun title is all it takes to spark curiosity at the table!
And no, I'm not saying that these should be a replacement for tortillas or the only way you offer spinach (or eggs) to your toddler but it can be a fun way to get them comfy with it! Plus, I love that these make such an easy meal for both babies and toddlers.
Why You and Your Toddler Will Love These Spinach Wraps
- just 3 ingredients you already have on hand (honestly even just 2 if you want to skip the oats)
- nutrient-dense and balanced with protein, iron, and fiber in every wrap
- soft and flexible like a tortilla, easy for little hands to hold and fill
- fun green color you can rebrand as a “green tortilla” or let your toddler name it
- freezer-friendly and quick to reheat, making busy mom life easier
- endless filling options to keep things fresh (banana + PB, cheese, hummus, avocado, cream cheese, you name it!)
These spinach wraps would be amazing rolled up with mashed black beans and shredded cheese, dipped in my avocado ranch dip. We also love my salmon rice balls for an easy toddler + baby lunch!

How To Make Your Spinach Wraps
- Step 1: Add eggs, spinach, and oats to a blender. Blend until smooth and bright green.
- Step 2: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium, grease lightly, and pour in the batter. Swirl into a thin circle (like a tortilla).
- Step 3: Cook 2–3 minutes until set, flip carefully, and cook another 1–2 minutes.
- Step 4: Let cool slightly, then use like you would a soft tortilla.
Hint
Keep the heat on medium-low and spread the batter thin in the pan, almost like making a crepe. This helps the wrap cook evenly without over-browning, so it stays soft and flexible (perfect for rolling like a tortilla).
Substitutions
These 3 ingredient spinach wraps are already gluten-free and dairy-free! I haven't tried an egg-free version yet and honestly not sure how flax eggs would hold up.
- oats → quick oats, rolled oats, or oat flour all work (use 2 tablespoon for a thin tortilla-like wrap, or 3 tablespoon if you want it a little sturdier)
- egg-free → I haven't tried this yet, but you can try 2 flax “eggs” (2 tablespoon ground flax + 5 tablespoon water, let gel) or a different egg replacement
Variations
You can totally add more flavoring to these spinach wraps if you want! Here are some yum ideas for you:
- savory garlic & herb – add ¼ teaspoon garlic powder + ¼ teaspoon dried Italian herbs for a flavorful tortilla that pairs well with cheese or turkey
- sweet – add a dash of vanilla extract + dash of cinnamon (perfect for the banana + peanut butter combo)
- cheesy wrap – blend in 2 tablespoon grated parmesan or cheddar before cooking for extra flavor toddlers love
- southwest style – sprinkle in ¼ teaspoon cumin + ¼ teaspoon chili powder for a wrap that pairs perfectly with beans, avocado, or shredded chicken
How To Serve Spinach Wraps To Toddlers
- fill with smashed avocado + shredded cheese
- make veggie rolls with hummus or ranch + cucumber shreds
- banana sushi using peanut butter + banana (cut into quarters for babies & young tots)
- monster or hulk bites with cream cheese filling or this yogurt dip
Equipment
All you need to make these spinach wraps is a blender and skillet!
Storing Your Spinach Wraps
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-5 days. Layer with parchment and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in a skillet or microwave.
Tiff's Dietitian Tip
Toddlers need iron, protein, and fiber daily for growth and development and these 3 ingredient spinach wraps have all three into a fun tortilla-style wrap! Giving them a nutrient-dense base for whatever filling you choose. Plus, presenting spinach in this familiar form often feels way less intimidating than seeing a pile of leaves on their plate. Not saying these will make them start loving spinach, but every exposure counts!
FAQ
Use just 2 tablespoon of oats or flour and be sure to not overcook!
Yes! Slice into strips for BLW starting at 6+ months. If adding fillings, then cut into bite-size pieces for when baby is ready for pincher grasp.
Absolutely! Let them cool fully before wrapping and packing. They’re great for daycare/school lunches filled with hummus, cheese, or turkey.
