Once your baby has been eating solids for a couple of months, you can notice that she’s gotten much better at her gross motor skills and is beginning to master the pincer grasp. She can now pick up things and put them into her mouth and is already probably doing so – from your plate! She’s also kind of bored with smooth purees, which means it’s time to add some texture. These banana oatmeal cookies are perfect for babies over 8 months and are perfectly vegan and safe – no sugar or salt, no cow’s milk and no refined flour!
