Egg, zucchini, and barley bites

We love these types of quick and easy recipes, perfect for BLW, as a snack for toddlers, or as an express lunch to take with you on the go. 

These little bites are delicious served with hummus, tofu spread, or cottage cheese.

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • ½ zucchini, grated
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast flakes (or grated cheese)
  • ¼ cup Toupti barley cereal
  • ½ tsp baking powder

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 °F (200 °C).
  2. In a bowl, mix all the ingredients until well combined.
  3. Divide the mixture into small, lightly oiled muffin tins.
  4. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and cooked through in the center.
  5. Let cool slightly before serving according to your toddler's wishes and preferences.

This basic recipe is easily customizable according to your baby's tastes and needs. You can replace the nutritional yeast with grated cheese if your child does not have a dairy intolerance. Nutritional yeast is actually an excellent alternative to cheese, while providing a delicious, slightly cheesy flavor.
