These berry oat muffins are only 5 ingredients, come together super quickly, and are a great healthy snack!
I was surprised how good these turned out for being so little ingredients. They are easyyyyy! Took maybe a minutes to mix the batter and then throw them in the oven. Delish little snack with healthy ingredients!
These have honey in them, please remove or sub out if your baby is under 1, as it is unsafe for babies under 1 to have honey.
BABY LED WEANING
This would be a great recipe to serve babies starting at 6 months (omit the honey), 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 is allergen free!
STORAGE
I stored these in the fridge for 4 days, then transferred to the freezer. They can stay in the freezer for 2-3 months.
To freeze I would line a baking sheet with foil or parchment then lay in a single layer and place in the freezer. Once frozen (give it a few hours) you can transfer to another container. This way they are individually frozen rather than all stuck together in one huge block!
To reheat I would either thaw in the fridge overnight then toast or microwave, or just toast or microwave from frozen.
SUBSTITUTES & ADD INS
I haven’t tried yet with any subs or add ins, but let me know if you do! Please remove honey if your baby is under 1 or you prefer to not add any sweetener. You could also add less, depending on sweetness preference.
This is a smaller batch recipe, so please double if you’d like more prepped! This made 5 total muffins.
TOOLS USED/RECOMMENDED
