CINNAMON OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
• In a food processor or blender, process the oats until finely ground. In a large bowl, combine the ground oats, all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, cinnamon, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt and set aside.
• In another large bowl, beat the butter and shortening together for about 2 minutes with an electric mixer. Add sugar and beat for another minute. Add eggs and vanilla and beat for 2-3 more minutes.
• Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix just until combined. Use a cookie scoop to scoop out the dough and place on prepared cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-9 minutes and cool for a couple minutes on cookie sheets before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

BANANA BABY FOOD - 8 WAYS!

Steps:

• Place the banana into a blender or food processor and puree until smooth and creamy, roughly 60-90 seconds, scraping down sides if needed. If the puree is too thick, add in some liquid (breastmilk, formula or water) in tablespoon increments until you have your desired consistency. If you want to freeze the puree, add a small squeeze of lemon juice into the puree to help keep it from browning.
• On a cutting board, mash a banana. In a small bowl, add the mashed banana to the made baby cereal. Add a pinch of cinnamon to the top and serve.
• Place the banana on a cutting board and mash with the back of a fork until mixed but yet still chunky. Spoon into a baby bowl and serve.
• Peel half of a banana and using your fingernails, break the banana into chunks along the seem of the banana. It should easily break into chunks
• Cut a 4-5 inch section of banana off from the top. Cut off the peel, leaving roughly 1-2 inches of exposed banana. Do not cut all the way through the banana, just the peel. Then you can remove the peel away and hand the stem of the banana to baby.
• Cut a banana into strips and roll them in a little bit of topping of your liking.
• Place banana, ice cubes and liquid into a blender. Add in cinnamon and nut butter, if using. Blend for 60 seconds and serve. If the smoothie is too thick, add in additional liquid as you don't want it too thick or baby might have a hard time drinking it.
• In a medium bowl mix together mashed banana, an egg, whole wheat flour and cinnamon. In a large non-stick skillet preheated on medium heat, pour 1/8 cup of batter into the skillet. Let cook roughly 3 minutes on the first side, flip and cook for 2 more minutes or until golden brown.
