Healthy Biscuits for Babies – Teething Biscuits – Finger Food for Babies

Many of you have been asking to share baby teething biscuit recipe, I have been giving maha milk bikis or marie biscuits daily. But somedays i like to make some homemade cookies or biscuits for her. For babies it is not recommended to add any rising agent like baking soda or powder. So it is best to go for a shortbread kind of cookies.

Oneday i thought of making a wheat cookies with ghee. First i thought of adding jaggery in the cookies, but i was confused that if i need to add jaggery it has to be melted and strained. So i was not sure whether that liquid will make a perfect cookie. So i thought of adding panangkarkandu which is also called as rock sugar. I added some ginger powder for flavour and the cookies turned out brilliant..
Hope you will give this a try and not only your baby, you too can enjoy this healthy and tasty one.
Preparation Time : 10 mins
Cooking Time : 12 to 14 mins
Makes : 20 Biscuits


Ingredients:

Wheat Flour / Atta – 1 cup
Rock Sugar / Panangkarkandu – 1/2 cup Powdered
Ghee – 1/4 cup
Dry Ginger Powder / Chukku Podi – 1/2 tsp
Milk – 2 to 3 tblspn


(MY 1 CUP MEASURES 240 ML)

Method:

Preheat oven to 180 degree C.

Take ghee and sugar in a bowl. Mix well. Add in milk and mix well till creamy.

Now add in dry ginger powder and mix well.

Add in flour and knead to a dough. Add milk if needed.

Now roll this between two sheets of plastic wrap.

Trim of the egdes and cut into strips.

Remove it carefully using a spatula and place on a foil lined baking sheet.

Bake it for 12 to 14 mins till golden. It will be soft when you take from oven, it will harden as it cools down.

Let it cool completely. Now store this in a air tight container for a week.

Pictorial:
This is called panangkarkandu / rock sugar..I used 
this as the sweetner in this cookies,
you can use sugar or jaggery too
Take rock sugar in a blender
Powder it finely
These are the ingredients which you need, 
you also need some milk
first take ghee in a bowl
add in sugar
mix well, as you see the mix is thick,
so i added few tblspn of milk
now it is all creamy
as a flavouring, i added some ginger powder 
which is so good for babies..
add in wheat flour
knead this to a soft dough..Add more milk if needed
i spread some plastic wrap and placed the dough over it
cover the dough with another sheet of plastic wrap
roll it out
i trimmed the egdes and made it into a square shape
now i cut it into strips like this
then divided it into half
removed each cookie with a spatula
placed it on a foil lined baking sheet
Now it is baked
Once it is cooled, you can store it in air tight container
 for a week.

    Hi aarthi,
    Your recipes are awesome.. Keep going.. I follow ur blog regularly.. I have a doubt.. Wheat flour you have used in this recipe is homemade or store bought? Also can we give porridge to babies by using store bought wheat flour? We buy aashirvaad multi grain flour for us. Can we give this to babies?

    These basic banana oat cookies are free from added sugar, eggs and milk. Which make them very useful for children with allergies or when you are slowly introducing the allergy foods to your baby.
