Ingredients

2 tbsp rolled oats
1/2 banana, ripe
1/2 tsp smooth peanut butter
120 ml water or breast milk/formula

Preparation

Cook the oats with water over low heat until very soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the ripe banana and mash well into the oats.
Stir in the peanut butter until fully dissolved and smooth.
Blend or mash into a thin, smooth puree, adding extra liquid if needed.
Cool to lukewarm before serving.

Serving by Age

Stir the small amount of smooth peanut butter completely into fully cooked, moist banana-oat porridge until no thick sticky peanut paste or dry clumps remain. Offer a spoonable consistency; never a concentrated spoonful of nut butter.

6 months+

Serve as a smooth, thin porridge. Blend thoroughly and add extra warm water or milk to reach a runny consistency for early eaters.

9 months+

Serve slightly thicker with a soft, mashed texture. Ensure peanut butter is fully mixed and no lumps remain.

Allergen Information

Contains peanut from smooth peanut butter, a major allergen. Check oats for any relevant wheat/barley/rye cross-contact; if using infant formula instead of water, read the formula's milk/soy allergen ingredients. Follow any personalised peanut-allergy introduction plan.
