Prep Time: 5 mins – Cooking Time: 15 mins

These 2-ingredient cookies are as simple as it gets - made with just banana and oats, and ready in under 20 minutes. Perfect for baby-led weaning from 6 months+, they bake into soft, naturally sweet cookies that are easy for little hands to hold and enjoy.

They’re ideal for those days when you’ve got nothing in the cupboard, no time, and zero energy - but still want to offer something homemade. Just mash, mix and bake. No added sugar, no complicated steps - just a quick, wholesome snack that works every time.

The soft texture makes them perfect for early eaters and great for self-feeding practice, while also being a hit with toddlers who love a simple, naturally sweet snack. You can keep them plain or mix in extras like berries, raisins or a pinch of cinnamon to switch things up.

They’re also great for batch making and perfect to have on hand for busy mornings, snack time or those “I need something now” moments.

Notes

These 2-ingredient cookies are the ultimate quick win—soft, naturally sweet and perfect for baby-led weaning from 6 months+ with zero fuss. They could not be easier with just two ingredients! Whilst they are delicious on their own or you can add various fillings of your choice. Annabelle’s favourite adaptation of these cookies includes adding a tablespoon of peanut butter and a pinch of cinnamon.

Some other tasty filling options include: dried cranberries, strawberries, blueberries, choc chips, sultanas, apricots.
