These apple oat cookies are super simple and perfectly sweet for your little one!
This recipe is super simple and gives you a fiber packed and flavorful snack or side for your little one. All naturally sweetened from the apple, plus added sweetness and flavor from the cinnamon and vanilla. It takes only a few minutes to make then you bake them up and serve. So easy!
BABY LED WEANING
This would be a great recipe to serve babies starting at 6 months, once they’ve been safely introduced to the allergens in the cookies. For younger babies, typically it’s best to serve bigger pieces since those are easier for them to hold. Once they develop the pincer grasp (pointer and thumb pinching together), then you can start to give them smaller pieces.
For information on how to safely serve foods to babies depending on their age (plus so much more), I recommend Solid Starts. The app is free and has tons of information!
ALLERGENS
This recipe has eggs and dairy. You can easily swap in dairy free milk. It should work just fine with an egg replacer, this one available online at Target.
STORAGE
I stored these on the counter for 4 days, then transferred to the freezer. Can stay in the freezer for 2-3 months.
