These 4 ingredient oat and tahini cookies are so easy to make, yummy, packed with iron, calcium, fiber and they are baby friendly too! So you can enjoy them with your baby.
Also, you can bake a double or triple batch and freeze some too. Perfect for busy moms to have them on hand. And you can use them as a quick snack at home or on the go, as dessert or breakfast too. Your choice!
As you may know, my baby is eating solid food now and I'm trying to cook foods that are delicious and nutritious for both babies and adults.
That's how I created this burger too. It's high in iron, protein, healthy fats and delicious for the whole family.
My little one likes it a lot. And you can make a double or triple batch and freeze some for later too.
Pair with some veggies and a fruit and you have a complete and healthy meal 😊
Ingredients:
*175 g (1 cup) edamame beans
*250 g (1 cup) green peas, fresh or frozen and thawed
*150 g (1 cup) whole wheat flour
*87 g (1/3 cup) tahini
*45 g (3 tbsp) tomato sauce (low or no salt)
*5 g (1.5 tsp) garlic powder
*3 g (1tsp) paprika
*2 g (1 tsp) ground coriander
*1 g (1/2 tsp) ground black pepper
*kelp powder (1-2 scoops) - optional
Method:
If you make the burgers for babies or small children put the peas, edamame, tomato sauce and spices into a food processor and blend until everything is fine, almost a paste. For adults or bigger children you can just pulse everything and let some chunks, for texture.
Add the tahini and the flour and pulse until you have a dough, then form burgers, about 8-10 cm (3-4 inches) in diameter and 1-1.5 cm (1/3 – ½ inch) thick for adults or smaller for babies.
You can bake them on a low heat for about 15 to 25 minutes (depends a lot on your oven), or grill/ fry them on a low heat for 5-6 minutes on every side. I really prefer to bake them, but to each their own :)
If you're cooking them for children, add just a bit of water and cook covered, so they will be a bit more moist inside.
You can also freeze them for up to 3 months after you cook them if you want. I usually make a batch and freeze most of it, to have for my little one.
You have a video for this recipe too:
Ingrediente:
* 175 g (1 cană) edamame boabe
* 250 g (1 cană) mazăre verde, proaspătă sau congelată și dezghețată
* 150 g (1 cană) făină de grâu integral
* 87 g (1/3 cană) tahini
* 45 g (3 linguri) sos de roșii (fără sare sau co conținut redus de sodiu)
* 5 g (1,5 linguriță) usturoi granulat
* 3 g (1 linguriță) paprika
* 2 g (1 linguriță) coriandru măcinat
* 1 g (1/2 linguriță) piper negru măcinat
* pudră de kelp (1-2 măsuri) - opțional
Metodă:
Dacă faceți burgerii pentru bebeluși sau copii mici, puneți mazărea, edamame, sosul de roșii și condimentele într-un robot de bucătărie și amestecați până când totul este fin, aproape o pastă. Pentru adulți sau copii mai mari, puteți doar să pulsați totul și să mai lăsați niște bucăți, pentru textură.
Adăugați tahini și faina și pulsați până când aveți un aluat, apoi formați burgeri, cu diametrul de aproximativ 8-10 cm (3-4 inci) și 1-1,5 cm (1/3 - ½ inch) grosime pentru adulți sau mai mici pentru copii.
Îi puteți coace la foc mic 15 până la 25 de minute (depinde mult de cuptorul dvs.) sau îi puteți prăji/ face pe grill la foc mic timp de 5-6 minute pe fiecare parte.
Pentru mine prefer să îi coc. Dacă gătiți pentru copii, adăugați un pic de apă și gătiți acoperit, astfel încât aceștia vor fi puțin mai moi în interior.
De asemenea, îi puteți congela până la 3 luni după ce îi gătiți, dacă doriți. De obicei fac un lot și congelez majoritatea, pentru a avea pentru micuța mea.
As a mom with a baby that started to eat solid foods and does baby led weaning (mostly because said baby refuses to be spoon fed, actually), I'm always thinking of recipes that are high in iron, protein and healthy fats. Not necessary all in the same recipe, but hey, if I can do it, why not? And this pate/ dip has them all: healthy fats, it's high in iron and protein and even has some vitamin C to enhance the iron absorption!
This recipe is very easy to make (ready in less than 5 minutes if you have cooked lentils), has just a few ingredients and you can use this multiple ways: as a dip instead of regular hummus, on toast or any other kind of bread or you can use it as a sauce for pasta too! Your choice!
