This is another recipe that Joe has loved from the start of his BLW journey and lots of mamas have also asked for the recipe and made these for their little ones.
I have changed the recipe a little from my original by adding desiccated coconut and I have found this makes a huge difference!
Makes Approx. 12-14 Oaty Bites
Ingredients
- 200g Rolled Oats
- 25g Desiccated Coconut
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 Pouch (approx. 90g) Banana Puree - I use the Aldi Mamia one
- 190ml Full Fat Milk
- Handful of Strawberries
- Handful of Blueberries
- Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan
- Combine the Rolled Oats and desiccated coconut together
- Add the egg, banana puree and milk
- Mix until all ingredients are combined
- Roughly chop strawberries and blueberries, add these to the mixture and stir
- Lightly grease a mini muffin tin - I use fry light coconut oil
- Spoon in the mixture, making sure you you push the mixture down with the back of the spoon so it's all compact
- Bake for 20-25 minutes depending on the size of your muffin tins
I can usually make 14 oaty bites so I usually cook them in two batches. It's best to use either a standard muffin tin or silicone, I did try making these in paper muffin cases but they didn't work out as well.
If your little one has a cows milk allergy, you can always substitute the milk for a different milk of your choice.
These little oaty bites are not only perfect for breakfast but for lunch and snack times too. I usually eat one with a cup of tea as soon as they are out of the oven!
The oaty bites should last for 3 days in an airtight container. I also freeze the oaty bites the same way as I freeze my pancakes with a piece of baking parchment in between each oaty bite, then placed into a container. They literally take 1-2 hours to defrost, then I pop them in the oven to warm up.
You can also add lots of different fruits to your oaty bites and can substitute the banana puree for 2 mashed bananas but you may need a drop more milk.
Let me know if you try out this recipe.
Enjoy!
