⚠️ Contains allergens: egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 1 cup (about 90 g) Fine rolled oats
- 1 medium Ripe pear (finely grated)
- 1 piece Ripe banana (mashed with a fork)
- 1 piece Egg
- 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
- a few drops Olive oil (to grease the tin)
Directions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a tray with baking paper, or lightly grease a mini-muffin tin with a few drops of olive oil.
- 2
Mash the ripe banana smoothly with a fork. Finely grate the pear and gently squeeze out any excess juice.
- 3
Beat the egg in a bowl, then stir in the mashed banana, grated pear and cinnamon.
- 4
Add the oats and mix until everything is moistened. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes so the oats swell and hold together.
- 5
With a damp spoon, take walnut-sized portions; press them lightly into round bites and arrange them spaced apart.
- 6
Bake at 180°C for 16-18 minutes, until golden on top and set at the edges.

Serve once fully cooled. Before offering them to your child, break them into small, easy-to-hold pieces, and always let your child eat seated and under your supervision.
🌱 Why is it nourishing?
Oats provide fibre and slow-release carbohydrates that can help keep your child's energy steady. Ripe pear and banana add natural sweetness and potassium without any added sugar, while cinnamon lends a warm, familiar aroma. These soft, hand-held bites can gently support a two-year-old's self-feeding and fine-motor skills.
