BABY CEREAL COOKIES

Daniel was never keen on baby cereal or other pureed foods. I found this recipe when I was searching for ways to incorporate baby cereal and other iron-rich foods into a finger-food diet for him. They are wonderful! Daniel has one or two each morning for breakfast. To mix things up, I sometimes add a banana or a handful of raisins to the mix. These freeze well, so if you end up with too many cookies, just pop them in a freezer bag and save for later! (I found the recipe at www.simcoehealth.org.)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon water
1 1/2 cups infant cereal

Steps:

  • Store uncovered overnight.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cereal: Use unsweetened, plain, whole grain cereals for the best results. Avoid cereals with added sugar or salt.
  • Grind the cereal: Grinding the cereal into a fine powder will help the cookies hold together better. You can use a food processor or a blender to do this.
  • Use ripe bananas: Ripe bananas add natural sweetness and moisture to the cookies. Make sure they are mashed until smooth before adding them to the batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will help the cookies hold their shape better. You can also freeze the dough for up to 2 months.
  • Bake the cookies at a low temperature: Baking the cookies at a low temperature will help them cook evenly without burning.
