I can't believe baby Colt is already old enough to eat solid foods, but now that he is, I wanted to be very intentional about introducing him to wholesome clean foods.
After our first experience introducing him to finger goods, I quickly learned two things:
1.) They needed to be easy to eat
2.) They needed to be tasty enough so that his hard work (of picking it up) paid off.
Several people suggested starting with baby puff snacks, but I really wanted to avoid processed food, and not to mention they are pricey. This started my quest for the perfect baby puff recipe. After finding several recipes that had either a ton of ingredients or ended up using (boxed) baby cereal, I decided to develop my own recipe. I've shared it below, for other mommy's who want to avoid processed foods and who want to save a little bit of money.
Easy Baby Puffs – Sweet Potato
1 c. mashed sweet potato
1 c. old fashioned oats
Preheat oven to 350. Measure out oats and place in a food processor until oats have a flour consistency.
Mix in mashed sweet potatoes.
Roll into small pieces and bake for about 3-5 minutes.
Yes it really is that easy! I'd love to hear your feedback. If you make these, comment below and let me know what you and your sweet baby think!
Baby Colt Approved! |
