Here are some great recipes to warm young tummies (and older one's too!) on a cold morning!
Angela’s French Toast
Angela Ferrigno, Fresh Baby warehouse and fulfillment
2 eggs
Milk
Cinnamon
4 slices gluten-free bread (I prefer Udi’s), cinnamon raisin bread or bread of your choosing.
Put eggs in a bowl and add just enough milk to make a batter (I eyeball it, but it’s around 1/4 of a cup). Sprinkle cinnamon into batter and beat with a fork. Soak slices in batter for a few seconds. Place on a hot griddle pan and cook on both sides until golden brown. Serve with butter and maple syrup.
Soldiers and Oatmeal
Rose Straebel, Marketing and Sales for Fresh Baby
Soldiers:
4 slices of whole wheat bread
1 Tbs. cinnamon
4 small pads of butter
Oatmeal:
3-1/2 cups fat-free or low-fat milk
2 cups old fashioned oats
1/2 cup raisins
1 Tbs. maple syrup
2 Tbs. brown sugar
Small pad of butter
Dash of nutmeg
In medium saucepan, bring milk to a gentle boil. (Watch carefully.) Stir in oats, raisins and maple syrup. Return to a boil; reduce heat to medium. Cook 5 minutes or until most of milk is absorbed, stirring occasionally. Let stand until desired consistency. Stir in brown sugar, small pad of butter, 1/2 tbs cinnamon and dash of nutmeg.
While oatmeal is standing, toast 4 slices of wheat bread. Spread with small pads of butter and sprinkle with cinnamon. Slice bread into 4 long strips.
Spoon oatmeal into four cereal bowls. Serve with toast strips. Serves 4
Slow-Cooker Oatmeal
Jennifer Newton Reents, Fresh Baby blog editor and online publicist
1 cup steel cut oats
4 cups water
1/2 cup half-and-half
In a slow cooker, combine all ingredients and set to low heat. Cook for 8 hours and it will be ready in the morning. Blend with brown sugar and maple syrup to taste, or add your favorite toppings. Dried cranberries can be added to the mix when you put it in the pot to cook.
