Why spend a fortune on processed baby cereal bars or give your child flapjacks loaded with sugar when you can make these with only 2 ingredients. This is the most popular recipe on my Facebook group and I am constantly being asked about them.
1 pot of fruit puree (I use Organix, Cow & Gate, Hipp etc – Life is too short to make my own puree!)
6 tbsp uncooked porridge oats
Mix all the ingredients together and put onto a non stick baking sheet (or greased tin/foil etc). Flatten to about 1cm thick and bake in oven on 190 degrees C for 15-20mins. Once cool cut into baby size pieces.
You can add raisins, dried fruit, nuts or replace fruit puree with well mashed banana. I also put into mini muffin tins which works really well.
Can’t wait to make these!
Thanks Clare. They are stupidly easy to make. Hope you enjoy!
Only have Ella’s pouches is that equivalent to a pot of purée?
HI I am not sure of the exact measurements but you can definitely use them as the exact amounts really don’t matter thanks
Made a batch of these today with some cubes of fruit puree I had in the freezer – my 17 month old loved them! So easy to make – will definitely be making them again! Thank you!
Hi Lucy – thanks so much for the feedback. I’m so pleased they were a hit. I make them every few days and my 16m old just adores them too. Thanks Francesca
how long do they keep for?
Hi Catherine – in a tupperware box or freezer bag they last a couple days but you can also freeze them Thanks
Can these be frozen?
Hi Fran, Yes they can be frozen. Not that they tend to last long in my house to even get to the freezer! Thanks
Hi, I am going to make these as muffins. Do you know how many the recipe will make and how long they will take to bake? Thanks
I made these earlier but not sure they came out right. Are they meant to be quite chewy? Maybe I should’ve cooked them longer, but didn’t want them to be too crispy as my baby only has 2 teeth! Also do you know if ready brek could be used?
Hi yes they are meant to be chewy so don’t worry you did everything right!! I haven’t used ready brek before for them but give it a go and see what happens! Thanks
Thanks. He really enjoyed them!
Love the look of this! How many g/ml is “one pot” please?
Hi one pot is about 150g. Thanks
Love the sound of these. How much mashed up banana would you recommend. I am useless at judging amounts. Thanks
mine turned out really soft….why? they were in oven ages! 🙁
