These cookies are perfect for your little ones to bring along for the carpool line or to have as an after school snack.

 

When creating these, I wanted to make these as EASY as possible, while still being yummy so even the busiest moms can make them. For an easy mix-in to boost your toddler’s nutrition, all you need to do is take one packet of Go & Grow by Similac® Food Mix-Ins™ and mix it into ½ cup of the batter. These cookies are a complete serving ready for your little one! Not only are these cookies yummy but they are high in protein, easy to make and balanced in terms of carbohydrates, protein and healthy fats.

Blueberry Breakfast Cookie

Ingredients

  1. 3/4 cups rolled oats
  2. 1 package(s) blueberry muffin mix ( 17.8 oz box, I like the ones that include a can of blueberries)
  3. 1/4 cup brown sugar
  4. 1/3 cup Canola oil
  5. 1 tablespoon milk (almond, soy, or any type you prefer)
  6. 1 extra large egg
  7. (optional) Use one packet of Go & Grow by Similac® Food Mix-Ins™ for one serving (or ½ cup of food).

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray two large baking sheets with cooking spray or line with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Wash blueberries in a colander; drain and allow to dry on paper towels.
  3. In a medium bowl combine muffin mix, oats, brown sugar, canola oil, milk, and egg. Mix well.
  4. Gently fold in blueberries.
  5. For your toddlers serving, portion out 1/2 cup of batter and add in the one packet of Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ to the cookies to be served to your toddler.
  6. Use a tablespoon to drop dough onto prepared baking sheets. If the dough is very sticky, just keep your hands and your tablespoon wet so that the batter doesn’t stick too much.
  7. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until just set.
  8. Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 5-10 minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool.

Notes

  1. You can substitute the oil for Greek yogurt or applesauce
  2. Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ and Go & Grow by Similac® Milk-Based Powder is available at your local Walmart and Walmart.com.
  3. For each toddler serving use one packet. If you have multiple kiddos (between the ages of 1-4) use one packet for each of them.
  4. The batter freezes well. Then when you are ready to pop them in the oven, just thaw and add one packet of Go & Grow by Similac® Food Mix-Ins™ to the 1/2 cup you will use to make the serving for your toddler.
  5. You can change the muffin mix to change the flavor! Try out Apple or Chocolate Chip
  6. You can use fresh blueberries instead of the canned.

 

My little ones love to have these with fruit and I add in a sippy cup of water mixed with Go & Grow by Similac® Milk-Based Powder and they’ve got a delicious and easy breakfast!

 

 


I also LOVE having the Go & Grow by Similac® Milk-Based Powder on hand for days at the park, beach or the school pickup line. My little guy can get the nutrition he needs without me worrying about having a cup of milk sitting in the car all day. If any of you mommas have ever dealt with a sippy cup of milk left in the heat you know what I am talking about. So gross.

 

On top of these yummy breakfast cookies, there are so many other options you can use with the Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™. Our favorites include mixing-in hummus, apple doughnuts, and quesadillas. So many options for easy mix-in nutrition (just make sure your toddler doesn’t have any more than 2 packets of Go & Grow by Similac® Mix-Ins™ each day)!
