Soft and moist, nutritious and filling, easy to grab-and-go for outings or to stack in lunchboxes. The perfect little first muffin for baby or a fun toddler's snack.
These little bites are perfect snacks for little ones. Soft and moist but they hold well enough under tiny fingers. They are full with good stuff for them, naturally sweetened with sweet potatoes, bananas, and a little bit of dates, and I love that they make a fantastic grab-and-go snack for outings or lunchboxes.
Just to note that babies under 1 don’t really need snacks, you don’t want them to take tummy space from main meals, but if you are looking for something to take on the go & maybe a more nutritious option to replace store bought baby biscuits etc.. or even for babies who love bread, this can be a good alternative (I’d say 9mo+). Perfect for toddlers & lunchboxes though 😉
For older kids used to sweeter snacks, you can totally add in some extra sweeteners like honey or debs (reduce milk quantity accordingly). My almost 6yr old enjoyed them as is, but with some peanut-butter inside & topped with a drizzle of honey.. turning it into breakfast 😉 baby can have it with a bit of peanut butter spread on it as well!
Place all wet ingredients (first 5) in a blender and run until smooth.
Mix all dry ingredients together (the remaining ones).
Pour the wet batter over the flour mix and fold just until all incorporated.
Pour into a mini-muffin tray brushed with tahini, or well oiled, and bake in a pre-heated oven at 175degrees for around 15-20 mins, or until a toothpick inserted comes our clean.
Store in an airtight container on the counter for 1 day, or in the freezer for longer. They freeze well!
