Baby led weaning oat cookies (no egg)
Baby led weaning oat cookies are an ideal early finger food. They’re easy to hold, easy to chew and - crucially - easy to make. They need only two ingredients; oats and bananas. No egg necessary!
Ingredients
- 80 g rolled oats (gluten free if necessary)
- 2 ripe bananas
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180℃ / 160℃ fan, and line a baking tray.
- Peel your bananas and break them up into a mixing bowl. Mash them up until smooth.
- Stir the oats into the mashed banana until it's all well combined.
- Add spoonfuls of the mixture to the baking tray and form them into a round biscuit shape using your fingers. The mixture will be very sloppy but don't worry!
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until starting to go golden on top. If your baby is low on teeth, make sure to take the cookies out before they get very crispy; they'll be easier to chew.
Notes
- See the main post for recipe variations and freezing instructions.
- If you or your child has an allergy, always double check that the recipe and all of the components are suitable. This includes checking ‘may contain’ statements on each ingredient and making your own assessment of risk based on personal circumstances.
