    Hello, there! At first, baby bread sounds like a pure marketing invention. But since I'm a mom of two food-loving kids, I can say that there are indeed bread or rolls that are good for little kids or babies. Like this recipe for toddlers.

    Taste and Occasion

    Both of our lucky little bakers immensely enjoyed the crispy bread rolls. The pictures speak for themselves 😉 . I had quite a bit of stress while taking the pictures to press the shutter quickly enough before the rolls had all disappeared into the little mouths….

    Of course, I've also tested the creation myself several times over the years. The tiny buns for kids taste slightly different from "normal" ones. Nevertheless, I think they are delicious. And they are much better than baby rusks, baby rice cakes or whatever else! The children's rolls are still moist on the baking day itself due to the vegetable-fruit content. But that changes after a few hours or until the next day.

    In my opinion, bread for toddlers should have hardly any crust, be comparatively soft and mild. And, of course, be full of healthy ingredients. The recipe is a mix of these baby spelt sticks as well as oatmeal bread for babies that I like to bake.

    In the yeast dough of the baby rolls, I packed spelt flour, juice, canola oil, apples and carrots, among other things, which are typical complimentary food ingredients that are very well tolerated in most cases. Just like the 2-ingredient oatmeal cookies. You can refine the snack rolls (optional!) with raisins, oatmeal, and some sweetener in the form of rice syrup or similar.

    In general, however, it was important that the recipe is sugar-free, egg-free and dairy-free and thus without typical allergens. Even though there is natural fructose in the ingredients - the baby bread is much healthier than most store-bought children's cookies and the like.

    How to make the Crispy Bread Rolls for Kids

    The following steps are simple, so I would say: Let's go: First of all, put flour, dry yeast, juice, water, oil and optional sweetener in a bowl. Mix and knead for a few minutes with a food processor or the dough hooks of a hand mixer. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.

    Now, squeeze the grated apple and carrot a little. Knead into the dough; add raisins if desired. Cover again and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.

    Recipe Recommendation

    These cheese-topped rolls turn out deliciously soft and fluffy. Better than from the bakery!

    It's time for preheating the oven to 400°F/200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Form balls from the dough with your hands, roll them in the oat flakes and place them on the baking sheet with some space between them. Bake for about 25 minutes. When fresh, the rolls are still quite moist; this changes after a few hours. They can also be frozen well.

    I usually form smaller and larger rolls from the dough and freeze some of them. If you let them thaw at room temperature, you always have a good baby snack without sugar for playground and Co quickly at hand.
