Notes
Age: 6+ months
Puree: to serve these oats to your baby as a puree, use a blender or a hand-held immersion blender, blend until smooth for a Stage 2 Puree, or blitz for a few seconds for a chunky Stage 3 Puree.
Baby-Led Weaning: oats can be hard for your baby to pick up and feed themselves (oh, the mess!). A great way to serve oats as a finger food is by simply spooning a couple of strips or round shapes of cooked oats on a plate and then letting them cool off on the counter or in the fridge. Once cold, the oats will harden enough for your baby to be able to pick them up by themselves. I’m not saying there won’t be a mess.. but it will be less of a mess and definitely easier for your baby to self-feed.
Additional Spices: Feel free to use a pinch of nutmeg, cloves, allspice or pumpkin pie spice blend if you prefer.
Storage: Fridge – store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Freezer – can be frozen for up to 4 months.
