Teething Biscuits

The last few weeks, I have been coming across homemade teething crackers/cookies for babies. I have thought about making them but every time I go to the store I forget to pick up some molasses.

Yesterday, in our food share, we got molasses!!!! Can you believe it??? I was so excited! Beyond excited actually.

Today, I looked up the recipes. I compared. I altered. Milled my own Brown Rice (into flour!).

I FLOPPED... Kind of. I burnt them! :) I was so excited about them - I left them in a little long. WHOOPS!


I will try again tomorrow!

-----UPDATE-----

Micah loves them. I guess they are not burnt just browned! :)

Teething Biscuits


2 Tbsp honey (not suitable for babies under one year of age)
1 Tbsp molasses
2 Tbsp oil (I would use coconut oil or butter)
1 egg yolk, beaten
1/2 cup rice or millet flour (I didn't have any on hand so I milled my own Brown Rice Flour!)
3/4 cup flour of your choice (spelt, wheat, kamut, barley)
Stir together the honey, molasses, oil and egg yolk. Mix the flours, and add to make a stiff dough. Since flours differ, if it is too thick, add a Tbsp of milk. If too soft, add a bit more rice or millet flour.
Roll dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into rectangles 1 x 1 1/2 inches. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 F until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. This time I used my coffee grinder.

    A Kitchen Aid Grain Mill is on my list. Coffee Grinder works good but you can only do so much at a time!

  3. 3 Studies PROVE Why Coconut Oil Kills Fat.

    This means that you actually kill fat by eating coconut fats (in addition to coconut milk, coconut cream and coconut oil).

    These 3 studies from big medicinal journals are sure to turn the traditional nutrition world upside down!
