Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup apple puree or unsweetened applesauce
• 1 medium banana (ripe and mashed)
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted)
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and ground cinnamon (if using).

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mash the banana until smooth. Add the apple puree and melted coconut oil, mixing well to combine.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. The dough should be firm but slightly sticky.

Step 5

Lightly flour a clean surface and roll the dough out to about 1/4-inch thickness.

Step 6

Use cookie cutters or simply slice the dough into rectangular strips about the size of a baby’s hand.

Step 7

Place the shaped biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small amount of space between them.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are firm and lightly golden brown.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. The biscuits will harden further as they cool.

Step 10

Store the teething biscuits in an airtight container for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer-term storage.
