Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 very ripe banana
  • 4 Tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 Tbsp water

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups oat flour (blend steel cut or old-fashioned oats in a mixer until flour consistency)
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) ensuring it’s hot and ready for baking the cookies evenly.
  2. Blend Wet Ingredients: In a food processor, combine the ripe banana, coconut oil, and water. Blend thoroughly until you achieve a creamy, smooth mixture.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Add the oat flour and cinnamon to the processor with the wet mixture. Blend again until a soft dough forms, making sure all ingredients are well incorporated.
  4. Shape Dough: Roll out the dough on a clean surface to about a 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into small shapes suitable for a baby to hold and chew, such as sticks or circles.
  5. Prepare for Baking: Place the cut-out cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and allow even baking.
  6. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they turn a pale golden color. Watch carefully to avoid over-baking, which could harden the cookies.
  7. Cool and Store: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely. Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for natural sweetness and easier mixing.
  • Oat flour can be made at home by grinding oats finely; using steel-cut or old-fashioned oats works best.
  • Ensure cookies are fully cooled before giving to babies to prevent burns and to allow proper texture.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
  • This recipe is free of added sugars, salt, and dairy, making it suitable for sensitive little tummies.
