This morning, I made Amelia (3 years old) oatmeal and she decided once it was done that she didn’t want it anymore. So, I decided to use the leftover oatmeal to make Matilda (7 months old now) some oatmeal cups. She ate three in one sitting. Then Amelia ate three. Needless to say, they both loved them!
They have no added sugar – just bananas. And they have the added protein of egg and milk. I used to make these for Amelia when she was learning to eat because they’re super soft and crumble easily, which is perfect for new eaters.
To be honest, I sneak one or two of these every once in a while (when I’m not doing Whole30) because they taste so good and are so easy to eat and make.
