Today, we’re sharing a delightful recipe for Baby Cereal Biscuits that are perfect for tiny hands to grasp and munch on. These biscuits are easy to make, and you can customize them with different baby cereal flavors to suit your little one’s preferences. Let’s get baking!
**Baby Cereal Biscuits**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 cup baby cereal (choose your baby’s favorite flavor)
– 1/2 cup mashed banana or applesauce
– 1/4 cup breast milk or formula
– 1 tablespoon coconut oil (melted)
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the baby cereal, mashed banana or applesauce, breast milk or formula, melted coconut oil, and cinnamon if using. Mix well until a dough forms.
3. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a bit more baby cereal to adjust the consistency.
4. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. You can use a cookie cutter to cut out shapes or simply slice the dough into small rectangles.
5. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until they are firm to the touch and lightly golden brown.
6. Allow the biscuits to cool completely before serving to your little one. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
These homemade Baby Cereal Biscuits are a wonderful way to introduce your baby to different flavors and textures while ensuring they are getting a wholesome snack. Feel free to experiment with different baby cereal varieties and add-ins like pureed fruits or vegetables to create new flavor combinations. You can also involve your little one in the baking process by letting them help with mixing and shaping the biscuits (with close supervision, of course!).
Remember, it’s essential to consult with your pediatrician before introducing new foods to your baby, especially if they have any allergies or dietary restrictions. These biscuits are intended as a snack for babies who have started eating solid foods and are ready for finger foods.
We hope you enjoy making these Baby Cereal Biscuits for your little one. The joy of watching them nibble on a treat you made just for them is truly priceless. Happy baking!
