Cookies for teatime (Or breakfast)! These cookies are full of dried fruits, nuts and healthy oats. In texture, they are somewhat chewy with a little extra crunch! They are also sugar free, dairy free and egg free. For this recipe, I used the pre-packed mixed nuts-fruits which I got for my homemade granola bar recipe. If your LO is allergic to nuts, you can choose to use only raisins or other dried fruit mix.

Chewy with a little extra crunch!
They're boosted with healthful ingredients.

Ingredients:

(Makes 9)
  • 3/4 cups quick/steel cut oats
  • 1/2 a large ripe banana, mashed
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened apple puree
  • 1/4 cup mixed nut + dried fruits, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp honey

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C and line a tray with baking paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine banana, apple puree, cinnamon, honey and the nut-fruit mix. Then add oats and mix til just combined.
  3. Scoop tablespoonfuls of mixture on to the prepared baking tray. Flatten a little with the back of the spoon and bake in the preheated oven for 25 - 30 mins. 
    Flatten them a lil before baking.
  4. Leave to cool for 10 mins before removing from tray.

  3. Hi what can I substitute honey and apple purée with? Or can they be excluded?

  4. Hi, the apple purée and honey are for flavor n help to bind the cookies together. You could try leaving out the apple purée by substituting it with the same amount of bananas. As for honey, maple syrup works too. I've read that molasses and agave nectar can substitute honey too but I've not tried them...
