Making cookies for newborns. Baby cookies: recipes

Mommies can't wait to let the baby try different sweets, among which bread and cookies take the first place. What kind of cookies to choose for your crumbs?

Cookies in the diet of a child under one year old are pure pampering. It has no biological value, but manufacturers generously add non-hypoallergenic additives to the composition. For example, sugar. Sugar is known to interfere with many vitamins and minerals from being absorbed. Why add sugar to fortified cookies is a great mystery. Apparently, the child must eat. For some reason. Also, keep in mind that any cookie contains gluten and may become intolerant. There are no hypoallergenic cookies. Allergists often recommend that nursing mothers and children with allergies consume cookies like Zoological or Mary (but remember that they are tiny).

Says pediatrician, employee of the Department of Nutrition for Children and Adolescents of the Russian Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education, Larisa Titova (information from the magazine "Mom and Baby).

In order to diversify and enrich the child's diet with nutrients, from 7 months you can give your baby crackers and baby biscuits enriched with vitamins. Bread is recommended to be introduced into the diet from 8 months of age, starting from 3 g per day, increasing its volume by the year to 15 g (1/3 of a piece of white bread).

Until the age of 3, children are not recommended to give rye and white freshly baked bread, since the child's enzyme system at this age is not sufficiently formed and is not able to break down incoming carbohydrates, and their intake into the body will inevitably lead to health problems, first of all, to problems the work of the gastrointestinal tract. It is also not recommended to widely use bran bread in baby food without medical advice. Bread with bran is recommended for improving intestinal motility in case of constipation, as well as overweight children over 3-5 years old, but each option should be considered individually by specialists.

For children of the first or second year of life, specialized products are recommended, balanced in nutritional substances, according to age, as well as enriched with minerals and vitamins. "Adult" crackers and unleavened biscuits, dryers, bagels, etc. can be offered to children over 1.5 years old, for example, for an afternoon snack in an amount of up to 50-60 g. But be careful, many of these products may contain additives that can cause allergic reactions , such as peanuts, hazelnuts, etc.

You should also not offer dry and easily crumbling foods to a child who is not chewing well enough, there is a possibility that he may choke on small pieces.

Biscuits, buns, gingerbreads occupy an intermediate position between bakery and confectionery. Confectionery products are products of a sufficiently high calorie content with a relatively low biological value, therefore, it is recommended to use them in baby food in limited quantities so as not to overload the child's diet with carbohydrates and fats. Therefore, it is better to postpone acquaintance with sweet confectionery at a later date, for example, after 2.5-3 years, and give them in small quantities, as treats.

From one year to three years, the amount of wheat bread and bakery products in the child's diet increases to 60-80 g, with good tolerance closer to 3 years, it is possible to introduce rye bread in an amount of 15-20 g per day. Children from 3 to 6 years old can receive wheat bread in the amount of 100-120 g, including baked goods, and rye - 50 g. The number of confectionery products in these two age groups should not exceed 10-20 g.

In between meals, children can "intercept" bakery products and sweets from the table, thereby disrupting the diet, interrupting appetite and not getting enough more valuable nutrients with less delicious products... Make sure that high-calorie, satisfying foods are not available to your child without your help.

Note: the doctor advises to introduce adult crackers and dryers no earlier than 1.5 years, and in our country they are traditionally put in for half a year. And up to three years, the norm of 60 g is indicated - judging by the stories in the forum, unfortunately, children are given much more from the year.

So, young children should not be unnecessarily burdened with rye bread, because it contains phytic acid, it interferes with the absorption of minerals. Coarse bread can be too aggressive on the gastrointestinal tract, you should not give Rye bread everyday. Especially fresh. Adults confectionery and completely clog the child's body with an unnecessary environment, they affect the jump in hormones, spoil the stomach. There is an opinion that a child should look "strong", and so stronger is healthier, and health is not in obesity. A child whose diet is overloaded with bread (especially a loaf, cookies) may be fat, as the relatives want. But he is unlikely to be healthy. Fiber in large quantities can interfere with the normal absorption of calcium, iron, magnesium and other essential elements.

The first cookie your little one should try should be a special baby cookie - no sugar, fat, salt or other harmful additives.

We bring to your attention a mischief of children's cookies presented on the Ukrainian market.

Cookies for babies under one year old cannot be called an ordinary treat. With the help of this crumbly delicacy, the baby comprehends the difficult art of chewing. In terms of composition, baby cookies are similar to porridge for babies, and if you dilute it with mother's milk or an adapted mixture, you can get a portion of a delicious dessert.

The optimal time to get to know a cookie

The children's diet for up to a year is not very diverse, so babies are delighted with complementary foods in the form of sweet and tasty cookies. Many parents are in a hurry to speed up the opening of a new food and begin to introduce the product too early, which is not welcomed by pediatricians. Until a certain age, the delicacy is extremely harmful, since sugar interferes with the absorption of useful vitamins. The cookies contain gluten, which is not dangerous for adults, but it may well cause intolerance to a number of foods in a child.

The older generation does not see anything wrong with giving cookies to a baby from 5 months, which is absolutely wrong. Until a year, sweet foods should be akin to pampering, and not be part of the children's menu. Even a small amount of sugar is harmful to babies, because it disrupts the process of the formation of immunity, which is laid in the first months of life. Experts advise introducing the crumbs to cookies when he is at least 8 months old, ideally it is better to wait up to a year.

The recipe for homemade or industrial biscuits must be free of allergenic products, dyes and preservatives. You need to give the baby a little treat, observing the state of his health. And do not replace mashed potatoes or porridge with cookies if the little one refuses to eat. A delicacy diluted with milk is also not considered the main course, but can be introduced into the diet in the form of a dessert in small portions.

What kind of cookies can you

Moms sincerely believe that the most healthy delicacy will be crackers, and the most harmful shortbread. However, pediatricians say that baking cannot be included in the children's diet for up to a year, even if the recipe includes healthy and fresh foods.

The first biscuit complementary food should be free of fat, sugar, salt and fillers. For the smallest children the variety is suitable that melts in the mouth and leaves no lumps. For older toddlers, dry is included in the menu biscuit biscuit and crackers that contain the maximum amount of flavor and fat are not healthy at all.

Shop biscuits composition

Many parents are afraid to give their children under one year old store-bought cookies, believing that homemade ones are better. And if the recipe for its preparation is passed on over the decades, the issue is resolved. Specialists in baby food recommend opting for the store-bought version of cookies for babies, since it is difficult to maintain all the necessary parameters of the recipe on your own. The composition of the delicacy that occupies supermarket shelves is not so terrible:

  1. Wheat flour of the highest quality can be obtained soft biscuits, which can quickly dissolve under the influence of a child's saliva. The main fear of the mother is the moment when the baby chokes - a specialized children's treat does not pose such a threat.
  2. Skimmed milk powder gives the product its special taste and nutritional value. However, for children with intolerances cow's milk it is better not to buy these cookies.
  3. Butter and vegetable oils contain natural fats that are used in the production of baby food. Margarine, which is a mixture of oils, cannot be found on the packaging, because it is not in the product either.
  4. The new phrase "invert syrup" is forcing parents to abandon the purchase option in favor of homemade complementary biscuits. Inversion is the process of producing glucose and fructose from sucrose. The finished syrup is much sweeter than regular syrup, which reduces the amount of carbohydrates in the cookie. The product tastes softer, is able to stay stale for a long time, and in tandem with baking soda increases the friability of the dough.
  5. Malt (or malt extract) is obtained from barley grains using a unique technology that allows you to preserve all the valuable nutritional qualities of the feedstock. The extract does not contain a lot of water and sugar, so the baked goods are stored for a long time. You can safely give a treat to children under one year old, without worrying that the cookie will weather or dry out if the crumb decides to prolong the pleasure of the meal.
  6. Baby food is enriched minerals and vitamins, according to a certain age. Babies have a deficiency of certain elements, and you can improve the situation with delicious cookies. In this case, the packaging contains the following symbols: “with beta-carotene”, “fortified with iron”. The recipe for the industrial version allows you to add important elements in the most lightweight form for assimilation.
  7. Children like delicious cookies, but natural vanillin, acting as a flavoring agent, will make it so.
  8. The emulsifier lecithin promotes the rapid absorption of fats, giving the product plasticity and softness. Contains biscuits and phosphatides to extend the shelf life of the product and improve its texture. All of the listed substances are approved by health care and will not harm children.

The recipe for specialized cookies was developed taking into account all the needs of the child's body, because only low-fat foods should be introduced into the baby's diet. It is almost impossible to achieve such a delicate consistency at home. It can be quickly diluted with milk, turning it into a kind of porridge, or given to babies in pure form.

A loose and airy structure is important so that the baby does not choke on hard crumbs and scratch the delicate mucous membrane of the throat with them. For children who have mastered complementary foods, a harder product is produced to train the chewing apparatus. And the size of the purchased cookies ideally matches the shape of a child's pen.

Various options

As a complementary food, it is advisable to introduce a product developed by specialists in order to avoid allergic reactions. With store-bought cookies, you can not be afraid to leave your baby alone for a while. And it is advisable to give a firmer homemade one when the child has mastered the process of chewing. Exists general recipe cooking treats, but healthy additives from fruits and vegetables are also allowed.
