Peach Baby Oatmeal
Serves: Makes approx. 3 cups
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup whole quick cooking oats (I use these)
  • 2 cups water
  • ½ tablespoon pure maple syrup, optional
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 ripe peaches, pitted and roughly chopped
Instructions
  1. Grind oats in a small food processor until powdery.
  2. Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan. Slowly pour in ground oats and whisk until smooth. Lower heat and add maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon and ginger. Continue to stir and cook over low heat for 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, rinse out food processor and add chopped peaches; puree until smooth (leaving a few chunks for older babies).
  4. Stir in peach puree to cooked oatmeal. Let cool and serve.
Notes
Oatmeal will last for up to 5 days in fridge or 2 months in freezer.
