\"Teething<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Did you know that babies get a new tooth about every 2 to 3 months until their second birthday, by which time most will have 20 teeth. You\u2019ll know when your child\u2019s ready for their first tooth because they\u2019ll drool more and appear uncomfortable; in fact, some babies begin teething as early as 4 or 5 months old.
\nIt is natural for your baby to want something in their mouth to soothe their gums and teething biscuits are great for this. They help to relieve pain while also stimulating little ones to use their hands and explore their surroundings.<\/p>\n

However, before you reach out for the store bought rusks or teething biscuits you need to check out this recipe! If for no other reason but to save you money! If your child is a bit older you can still make these as a nutritious snack or even better as a healthy breakfast for baby led weaning too!<\/p>\n

Teething Biscuit Homemade Recipe for Babies<\/h2>\n

These little teething biscuits are the exact ones I used on all of my babies when they were teething. They are packed full of simple and natural ingredients and make a super healthy recipe for your baby.<\/p>\n

Why you should give your Baby Banana<\/h2>\n

The recipe is made using a wet mixture of mashed banana which contains potassium, niacin and they also will give your little one a huge energy boost. This is especially important if they have gone off their food due to teething.<\/p>\n

Why you should give your Baby Oats<\/h2>\n

Oats are one of my favourite ingredients for babies and it is with good reason. We go through an entire bag of oats most weeks and I include them in pancakes, breads and of course breakfast bowls.\u00a0 Oats are incredibly nutritious! Firstly, they are a rich source of iron which is essential for growing babies and toddlers. Oats are also high in potassium, calcium for healthy bones and teeth, magnesium which also plays a role in bone and teeth health and also zinc. Oats ALSO are rich in vitamins too!<\/p>\n

The best part though is that oats are super inexpensive to buy! I get a 1kg bag in our local Dunnes Stores for just \u20ac1.<\/p>\n

Best oils for baby led weaning<\/h2>\n

For me I just stick with olive oil mostly or if I\u2019m making a sweet treat that needs to set, I will use coconut oil.
\nOlive oil is rich in monounsaturated fats and there is plenty of research to show that a diet rich in mediterranean foods (such as olive oil) is the healthiest diet.<\/p>\n

Pumpkin Seeds for baby led weaning<\/h2>\n

Pumpkin seeds are one of my favourite seeds for babies and can be served ground down into a fine powder to keep them super safe.\u00a0They are truly little powerhouses and pack a HUGE nutritional punch! Again they are very inexpensive and a large pack will only set you back about \u20ac1 and they go a long long way.<\/p>\n

Pumpkin seeds are a really good source of ALA (alpha linolenic acid) and this is really beneficial for heart health. Great for us parents too!<\/p>\n

Pumpkin seeds also are a great source of magnesium, iron, zinc and copper and are also contain protein too!\u00a0AND as if these little teething bars couldn\u2019t get any better\u2026I\u2019ve added in Chia Seeds!<\/p>\n

Chia Seeds for Babies<\/h2>\n

Chia seeds expand and it is important to remember that your baby\u2019s tummy is really tiny so make sure chia seeds are used in cooking and never given raw as a sprinkle on food. Using in chia puddings is perfect as the chia seeds have already expanded to their full potential \ud83d\ude42 Chia seeds are one of my favourite foods. They contain calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc and phosphorous and 25g of chia contains just over 4g of protein! Thats amazing and almost the same amount of protein as an egg.<\/p>\n

The best thing though about chia seeds is that they contain omega-3 fatty acids and for us who are vegetarian these are really important.<\/p>\n

Are these teething biscuits safe for my baby?<\/h2>\n

Yes absolutely! These little biscuits dissolve as your baby gums down on them which makes them really safe.<\/p>\n

How to store a teething biscuit?<\/h2>\n

Store in an airtight jar for up to one week. These don\u2019t really freeze well as they turn soggy after they defrost so make fresh where possible.<\/p>\n
