I don't have a baby in my household anymore, but if I put this recipe here, I can toss my paper copy! This is from the Healthy Baby program I attended in the Fort Rouge neighbourhood when Tava was born. Here it is:
This recipe was originally produced by Heinz but has been modified.
1/4 cup blackstrap molasses (you can substitute 1/2 cup brown or white sugar for the molasses)
1/4 cup margarine or butter
1 egg (after 12 months only -- before 12 months, substitute 1 ripe banana or 1 tsp baking powder)
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 cups dry baby cereal (any flavor)
3 Tbsp breast milk, formula, or whole milk
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease cookie sheet. Lightly cream margarine (or butter) and molasses together. Mix in egg (or banana) and vanilla.
In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and cereal together. Blend into creamed mixture.
Mix in milk. Combine thoroughly. Drop onto greased cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. These cookies may spread flat during baking. If you would like a less flat cookie, add 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup more flour or baby cereal.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly brown. Cool on wire rack. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
Substitutions allow you to make the recipe according to ingredients you have at home and also according to the needs of your baby.
Iron content: 1.4 to 1.6 mg per cookie
