Still on my quest for foods that my 10 month old will eat! These balls were a hit last night! I also tried baking some of them, but he preferred the mushy consistency!* based on the one star review i attempted this again for my second child. if made with infant formula this works great! be sure to squeeze all the liquid from the zucchini. i also added blueberries to sweeten the taste. if it seems to runny...add more wheat flour to find the right consistency. Ingredients:
1/2 cup brown rice |
1/2 zucchini |
1/4 cup peas |
1/2 cup infant formula |
1/4 cup organic whole wheat flour |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
Directions:
1. cook rice
2. steam veggies.
3. combine rice, veggies, and formula in food processor and puree.
4. Melt butter. Add butter and flour to puree.
5. If baking, pre-heat oven to 350. Roll tablespoon size balls and press with a fork a la peanut putter cookies. Bake for 20 minutes, or until bottoms are golden brown. Makes 24 baked cookies .
6. If rolling balls, roll balls slightly larger than a pea (or what your child can handle). The batch will make A LOT of balls, but they can be put in the fridge for four days, or frozen for a month.
