Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Baby cereal (iron-fortified, plain or flavored)
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.5 cup Banana (ripe, mashed)
- 2 tablespoons Milk (or plant-based milk)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the baby cereal, all-purpose flour, and baking powder. Stir to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients. Use a fork or your fingers to rub the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the mashed banana, milk, and vanilla extract (if using) to the dry mixture and stir to form a soft dough.
If the dough seems too sticky, sprinkle in a little extra flour, a tablespoon at a time, until it is manageable but still soft.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place each ball on the prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the biscuits feel firm to the touch.
Allow the biscuits to cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
