Easy Baby Led Weaning Oatmeal Fingers
This is the perfect recipe for serving oatmeal to babies (and the whole family!). Great for baby led weaning babies, snacks on-the-go, and picky eater approved too!
Equipment
- 1 plate (microwave-safe)
- Microwave
Ingredients
- ½ cup quick cook oats
- ⅓ cup milk of choice (breastmilk, formula, dairy milk, or alternative)
- 1-2 tbsp favorite mix-ins
- Spices to taste
Instructions
- Measure out and prep your ingredients.
- Combine milk and oats in a bowl or on a large plate. Let the oats sit in the milk for 3-5 minutes, until slightly softened.
- Add in your favorite mix-ins and mix well until ingredients are incorporated throughout.
- Lightly flatten the mixture onto a microwave-safe plate, and use the back of a spoon to form it into a square, packing it together well.
- Microwave on high for 3-4 minutes, checking after 2 minutes to see if it's cooked through and firm enough to remove. Please note that it will continue to firm up as it cools, so don't let it dry out.
- Set aside to cool and continue to firm up for another 5-10 minutes. Cut into finger shapes and enjoy!
