Egg-free apple cookies
About the recipe
We are always asked for egg-free snack recipes – so we hope your little one (and you too) love and enjoy these cookies! The honey can be omitted under 12 months of age (honey isn’t recommended under 12 months due to the risk of infant-botulism) – and the apples make these cookies sweet enough! These cookies contain a few different allergens – egg/cashews/almonds/wheat and dairy if using butter/ghee. You can read more about introducing allergens in this blog.
