Finger Foods 2

Ryatt LOVES these sweet treats! And I love that they are packed with much needed iron and vitamins. These cookies are a great dessert or snack. If you make them with infant oatmeal and fruit they could be a great breakfast.  Hope your little one enjoys!

Cereal Veggie Cookies
*These are soft. If you want a harder cookie add more flour

2 tbsp dark brown sugar
1/8 cup of butter
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup puree of carrot, squash, banana, raisin or pumpkin
2 tbsp of apple sauce
1/2 cup flour
1 cup of infant cereal
2 tbsp milk (or water or breast milk or formula)
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Preheat oven to 375F and grease cookie sheet. Cream together the brown sugar and butter. Mix in the egg, vanilla, cinnamon, puree and apple sauce. In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking soda, infant cereal and salt. Add gradually to the butter mixture until all moistened. Add the milk (or which ever liquid you choose) a tablespoon at a time. Drop cookies onto the cookie sheet about 2inches apart and bake for 10-12mins. Refrigerate.

NOTE: This dough doesnt spread very much when baking so if you want a more traditional cookie shape, pull the cookies out the oven at about the 8min mark and press down on each cookie then return to the oven for the rest of the cooking time.
