Spinach Cheese Mini Muffins for Babies (10 months+)

Preparation

1. 1

   Heat oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a mini muffin tray. Wash spinach thoroughly, remove tough stems and cook until wilted; drain and finely chop.

2. 2

   Whisk egg, whole milk and olive oil together. Add flour and baking powder, then fold in cooled spinach and mild grated cheese to form an evenly mixed batter.

3. 3

   Spoon into the prepared mini muffin tray without overfilling. Bake until centres are completely cooked through, with no wet egg or flour batter; actual time depends on mould size.

4. 4

   Cool enough to handle, split a muffin to inspect its centre and remove any hard crust. Cut into moist, soft strips or pieces that squash easily.

5. 5

   Serve at a safe temperature while the baby sits upright and is supervised.
