Oatmeal Cookies with Pear
These soft, naturally sweet Oatmeal Cookies with Pear are perfect toddler snacks packed with wholesome ingredients. Easy to make and gentle on little tummies, they’re a delicious treat anytime.
Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Spoon or spatula
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
Ingredients
- 1 pear diced
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). This gets the oven ready while you prepare the batter.
- In a bowl, mix the oats, diced pear, honey, almond butter, and cinnamon. The batter will be sticky — that’s perfect for these cookies!
- Spoon the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let your toddler help scoop for extra fun!
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until the edges turn golden. The cookies will smell wonderfully sweet when ready.
- Let the cookies cool slightly before serving. This helps protect little mouths from burns.
- Serve warm and enjoy! These cookies are best fresh but still tasty later.
Notes
Storage: Store oatmeal cookies with pear in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze in toddler-sized portions for up to 1 month. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving.
Age Modifications: For babies under 1, mash the cookies or serve as very soft bites without honey; for toddlers, keep the cookies whole to encourage self-feeding and chewing.
Allergy-Friendly: Use sunflower seed butter or other seed butters instead of almond butter for a nut-free alternative.
Boost Nutrition: Add a teaspoon of ground flaxseed, chia seeds, or a pinch of cinnamon for extra nutrients and flavor.
Parent Tip: Give them fun names like “Pear-y Oat Treats” or “Toddler Snack Bites” to make them more appealing to little ones.
