Possible allergens: Milk, oats (may contain gluten)
Ingredients
½ cup rolled oats
1 cup milk or water
½ banana
A pinch of cinnamon (optional)
Method
Bring the milk to the boil and add the oats.
Simmer on low heat for 5–7 minutes, stirring.
Mash the banana with a fork and stir it in.
Let it cool a little and serve warm.
Note for parents: No sugar needed – the banana adds enough sweetness.
Do not give children aged 2–4 small, hard, round foods (grapes, cherries, nuts) whole — they are a choking hazard. Introduce honey, nuts and other allergens in small amounts. If your child has special dietary needs, consult a doctor.
These tips are general information — not developmental norms, a diagnosis or individual medical advice. If you have concerns, consult a paediatrician or child psychologist.
