I was searching for ways to incorporate baby cereal and other iron-rich foods into a finger-food diet for him. So I decided to make cookies with all that baby cereal I had in my cabinet. They turned out delicious! My son Jesse loves them and I give him one for breakfast with some fruit. To mix things up, I sometimes add a banana or a handful of raisins to the mix & bought a pumpkin cookie sheet with the stick inserts and he went crazy.
