Baked Baby Bites

Little Honey is definitely in the pincher phase when it comes to motor skills, so we eat A LOT of Puffs around here! I try to stick with the organic ones most of the time, but those can get pricey. I made these Baked Baby Bites to let little man practice feeding himself and to save a little on our grocery bill this week. We already had all the ingredients, so I tossed them in a bowl, mixed, rolled, and baked. They came out great! The texture isn't the same as puffs, because the ingredients aren't ground as fine (or processed) but I like to think they are a little more nutrient dense and hearty. :) Hope your little one enjoys! 

1 1/2 cups oats 

1/2 cup baby cereal

2/3 cup applesauce

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 1/2 tbs coconut oil

Grind 1 cup oats in food processor until fine. (About the consistency of coarse ground coffee.) 

Stir in remaining ingredients.

Roll into 1/2 inch balls and place on greased baking sheet. 

Bake at 350 for 7 to 9 minutes. Let cool about 10 min before serving. 

Bon Appetite! 

I store mine in the freezer in a freezer ziplock.
