This is a way cheaper alternative to buying the oatmeal from the baby food aisle, and adding the powdered infant formula makes it iron fortified.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
2 scoops powdered infant formula (like enfamil, similac, etc.)
Directions:
1. Process oatmeal in a coffee bean grinder or food processor for 15-30 seconds. It should be mostly powder with a few specks still showing.
2. In a medium saucepan, boil water.
3. Whisk in oatmeal and formula.
4. Cook over medium heat for 1 minute, stirring occasionally.
5. Let cool to lukewarm before giving to baby.
6. Note: You can buy old fashioned oatmeal; you'll just need to cook it longer.
