Cheddar Biscuits with Kale and Corn

I love a good cheddar biscuit (I mean really who doesn't!) I came up with this recipe the other day in an attempt to create a healthy cheddar biscuit. These are made with multigrain pancake mix, flax meal, corn, kale and of course cheddar cheese. There's no extra salt, oil or butter, but trust me these are seriously yummy and full of flavor. You can serve these along side any brunch or dinner meal, or just eat them as a snack. These are for little one's 10+ months and Mommies and Daddies of all ages!



Here's what you need for 8-10 biscuits:
2 cups multigrain pancake mix
2/3 cup milk
1/2 cup finely chopped organic kale
1 cup frozen organic corn kernels
1 to 2 handfuls shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 
1 tbsp flax meal mixed with 3 tbsp water

Preheat oven to 425F. Put 1/2 cup frozen corn kernels in a food processor and blend until it makes a powdery meal. Put in a large mixing bowl. Add all other ingredients and stir until smooth. Using a spoon, dollop mixture one by one onto a baking sheet and place in oven. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool, serve and enjoy!

Carrot Apple Bread

Every so often I get the urge to bake, and this is what I came up with the other day. It's a yummy, healthy bread that the whole family can enjoy. My little guy loved it. He kept asking for more every time he finished a slice! I think I managed to eat a slice before he and my husband ate the whole loaf. This tastes great with jam, apple butter, or just on its own. This is for little one's who are ready for finger foods (approx 9+ months).



Here's what you need:
1 cup stoneground wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 to 2 large carrots grated
1/2 cup organic apple puree or unsweetened organic applesauce
1 egg
1 tblsp cinnamon
2 tblsp oil
1/4  cup brown sugar
2 tblsp apple butter (optional)

Preheat oven 350F. Mix all ingredients in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Pour into a greased (I sprayed with cooking oil) bread/meatloaf pan and bake for 40 minutes. Let cool and then slice. Cut into bite size pieces for your little one. Enjoy!
