I used regular rolled oats and tweaked it just a bit...<br />-I used one whole over-ripe banana instead of adding milk in order to give it more sweetness.<br />-I ground both cups of oats<br />-I added a little cinnamon and nutmeg<br /><br />To make rolling easier, I rolled dough into logs and pinched off small amounts to roll into balls. Then I flattened them to make small discs because I was worried about choking. They do disintegrate quickly once in my one year old's mouth though!<br /><br />Thanks so much!Kimberlynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1486575117120309203.post-51250075076739543542018-07-27T11:55:45.874-03:002018-07-27T11:55:45.874-03:00Did you use baby oatmeal?

I can set then in front of him in a restaurant or in his stroller our high chair and it keeps him totally occupied and happy! It did take forever so I'm thinking next time I might try rolling out big skinny snakes of dough and cutting it into pieces.

It's difficult still to find good recipes to make for him as well. Yesterday we tried your recipe and tweaked it a bit to suit his taste-buds and our sticks and tiny balls/lumps turned out wonderfully! He ate so many of the tiny balls straight away that we didn't have much to pack away. I'm not huge on oatmeal cookies and the like, though I love hot oatmeal, and I absolutely love the sticks that we made!

In Honduras, where I live, oats are already available ground since that is used to make a hot or cold oatmeal drink. Once you have ground the 1 cup of oats that you use, how much ground oatmeal remains? Certainly it loses at least some volume.
