Product Information

HealthyChildren.org. AAP clinical report highlights early introduction of peanut-based foods to prevent allergies. Add the quinoa flakes, coconut, arrowroot and cinnamon to a food processor. Process for approximately 20 seconds to produce a fine texture. Heinz Farley's Rusks are an ideal weaning food for your baby. Simply crush the Rusks in a clean bowl and add some of your baby's usual milk (previously boiled water can also be used). Allow to stand until Rusks soften, mix into a smooth paste/puree and feed from a clean spoon.

Consider whether you want a small hard crust, or a big one. If you favour a small hard cap, bake your rusks in a loaf tin. If you prefer a golden, hard crust down the longer side, bake them on a tray. Shaping and separating the rusks Take a small ball of the dough and roll it with your hands into a circle and then into a long cylinder. Flax is another ingredient most parents shy away from using, but your baby can have it once he is 8 months old. If you’ve never tried it before, start with ground flax seeds in your baby’s cereal and see how he takes it. Then go on to make these yum biscuits from My Little Me! Substitute brown sugar with grated jaggery in the recipe for a more mellow taste. 12. Spiced Coconut Teething Biscuits Jiang S, Shi C, Wu J. Genotypic differences in arsenic, mercury, lead and cadmium in milled rice (Oryza sativa L.). Int J Food Sci Nutr. 2012;63(4):468-475. doi:10.3109/09637486.2011.636343 This piece was inspired by our baking contributor and food blogger extraordinaire, Katelyn Allegra of The Kate Tin. She recently posted a recipe for Maltabella rusks and it got me thinking that we don’t really play around with flavours and ingredients in rusk-making as much as we could! Apart from commercial varieties (have you seen the banana bread rusks on sale at Woolies? and of course there were the Lemon Cream flavoured Ouma rusks that made an appearance on shelves a few months ago).

Homemade banana teething rusks

Memarpour M, Soltanimehr E, Eskandarian T. Signs and symptoms associated with primary tooth eruption: a clinical trial of nonpharmacological remedies. BMC Oral Health. 2015 Jul 28;15:88. doi: 10.1186/s12903-015-0070-2

If you’re looking for an equivalent to Nilla Wafers in the UK, you might be slightly disappointed. There is no true substitute for these iconic American biscuits. These Banana Bread rusks start out as a sweet, dense banana loaf and go on to become deliciously crunchy hunks of dunking joy. The process of slowly drying out the rusks fills your house with the sweet aroma of toasty banana bread for several hours (which my husband found so torturous he claimed he had to leave the house as he couldn’t get any work done.) That is indeed the most difficult part of the recipe, enduring the long wait while the rusks have dry out and then cool. Your reward? A hot cuppa with the perfect companion! Ingredients: They have different brand names and subtly different ingredients but are essentially the same product. However, finding an equivalent to Nabisco Nilla Wafers is a challenging task.

Mix the oat flour, rice flour, baking powder, and cinnamon together in a large bowl (if your baby is over 12 months old). My addition of Chamomile may or may not do anything to aid with teething pain, but it is just a nice twist and adds a mild floral note to the biscuit. My kids have had them without the chamomile as well. Now prunes are something we often associate with old people, not young babies. However, these prune baby biscuits from Family Feed Bag will prove that prunes are ideal for everyone, especially when they’re made with homemade prune puree. If you can’t find prunes, don’t stress – use any other fruit puree. 11. Apple Teething Biscuits There is no exact equivalent to Nilla Wafers in the UK; the above substitutes can work well depending on your recipe, but they’re not the same cookie. Cream together the butter, sugar and vanilla. Gradually add the eggs and beat well, then mix in the mashed banana.
