🌱 Why is it nourishing?
Ripe banana brings a natural sweetness and potassium without any added sugar. With its fibre and slow-release energy, oats can gently support the small hunger moments through the day. The soft, hand-held texture gives your child room to explore self-feeding and fine motor skills.

Cooling the cookies completely and serving them in small, soft bites makes for a safe and enjoyable experience at 2 years.
