Christmas Gummies: A Baby-Friendly Recipe

 

This festive and nutrient-packed gummy recipe is perfect for little ones! Featuring wholesome ingredients and natural flavours, it’s a great way to introduce texture, holiday spices, and nutrient-dense foods to your baby’s diet.

Ingredients

Base:

  • 1 cup oats (pre-soak if serving to babies under 12 months)
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 3 cubes Oats Apple Chia Purée (or substitute with your favourite baby-friendly purée)
  • 1/2 cup frozen berries
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Gelatin Mixture:

  • 3 tbsp gelatin (we recommend Nutra Organics for high-quality gelatin)
  • 6 tbsp filtered water

Method

  1. Combine the base ingredients in a saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring until the oats absorb all the liquid.
  2. Add any additional ingredients you’d like and mix thoroughly.
  3. In a separate bowl, bloom the gelatin by mixing it with water and letting it sit until it thickens and turns spongy.
  4. Stir the bloomed gelatin into the warm oat mixture, ensuring it melts completely and combines evenly.
  5. Pour the mixture into a silicone mold or a shallow glass dish and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until fully set.
  6. Slice into finger-sized pieces for younger babies or bite-sized cubes for 9 months and older.
  7. Serve plain, spread with your favourite topping, or use as a dipper.

  8. Storage - Keep gummies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Health Benefits of Baby-Friendly Gummies

These Christmas Gummies are a simple and delicious way to offer nutrient-rich wholefoods to your baby. Using Le Puree's Oats Apple Chia Purée adds natural sweetness and essential nutrients like fibre and omega-3 fatty acids, supporting your baby's digestion and brain development. The combination of oats and chia seeds ensures slow-release energy and essential nutrients to fuel their growth.

Gelatin plays a key role in promoting healthy skin, hair, and nail development while also supporting gut health. It's also packed with protein, which is essential for growing babies. Choosing a high-quality gelatin like Nutra Organics ensures your baby gets the best source of these benefits.

Cinnamon adds a festive flavour and contains powerful antioxidants that can support the immune system, especially during the holiday season. Including berries in this recipe brings a dose of vitamin C and natural colour, making it visually appealing for toddlers while providing additional immune-boosting benefits.

Why These Gummies Are Perfect for Babies

At Le Puree, we’re all about offering natural, nutrient-dense foods that meet the needs of growing babies. These gummies are a wonderful introduction to new flavours and textures, promoting oral motor development and making food fun. The recipe is adaptable for various developmental stages, ensuring your baby gets the right balance of nutrition and taste.

Storage

Keep gummies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

These Christmas Gummies are perfect for holiday snacking or as a fun addition to festive family meals. They’re nutrient-packed, easy to make, and designed with your baby’s health and development in mind! 🎄
