Banana Biscuits

These easy banana biscuits took only a few minutes to make and were a HUGE hit with my son!!

The first time I tried to make biscuits it did NOT work at all, but I lived and learned and these cutie little biscuits turned out great!! My son finished the batch in 2 days (and I may have helped him too 😂 )

Pro tip – do NOT be shy when flouring or reflouring your surface/rolling tool. Sticky dough = you need more flour!

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 recipe. 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 wheat and dairy (in the form of butter – can be replaced with df butter)

STORAGE

I stored these on the counter until we finished them! I’d store them for 4-5 days on the counter. Freeze for 2-3 months.

TOOLS USED/RECOMMENDED

Parchment paper – I buy precut online because I find dealing with a roll of parchment to be the most annoying thing and it’s just so much easier to have it cut for you! Comes in a variety of sizes.

Something to roll your dough out – rolling pin, wine bottle, water bottle, anything round!

Biscuit cutter – or a glass the shape and size of the biscuits you want!

Prep Time:10 minutes mins

Cook Time:8 minutes mins

Servings: 6

Ingredients

• 1 ripe banana
• 3/4 cup self rising flour + 1/4 cup for flouring the surface
• 2 tbsp cold butter cubed
• 1-2 tbsp milk (if needed)

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mash the banana in a small bowl until smooth.
• Cut the butter into small cubes and add to the self-rising flour. Use a fork or your fingers to mix the butter into the flour until it forms a crumbly texture.
• Mix in the mashed banana until the dough just comes together. If it’s too dry, add milk one tablespoon at a time until it reaches a soft but firm dough consistency.
• Flour your surface and rolling pin/utensil and roll out the dough on a floured surface to about ½-inch thick. It doesn’t need to be perfect! Some of mine were thicker than others.
• Use a small biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuit shapes. With leftover dough, re-roll and re-cut.
• Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
