You’ve prepped gifts, decorated your space, and maybe even cleaned up the kitchen after a busy holiday weekend. You deserve asmall, festive treat that’s quick to make, portable, and perfect for gifting or snacking while wrapping presents.
Babies loves berries! In fact natural yoghurt with some frozen berries can be a popular dessert! Berries are a superfood packed full of vitamin C. Something our toddlers need a lot of with all the nasty bugs flying around daycare centres, kindy and playcentre. This recipe could also be used for finger food for babies 10 months and older.
This recipe also includes wheatgerm which has a sweet, nutty that enhances the recipe. Wheatgerm is a good source of fibre and omega 6 fatty acids. Omega 6 fatty acids are essential fatty acids that are needed for human health which, like omega 3 fatty acids, we have to get through our diet. We need them for brain function, and normal development and growth.
You can freeze these and whip them out for a fast morning tea or at breakfast time for a change to cereal and toast
Pumpkin and squash are great sources of vitamin A and contain potassium. Pumpkins are a member of the Cucurbita family which includes squash and cucumbers.
Did you know that the flowers of the pumpkin are actually edible? Did you know that pumpkins are 90 per cent water?
These pumpkin scones are light and fluffy and freeze really well.
Thank you to my friend Peveline for sharing this pumpkin scone recipe with me, which she got from her mother-in-law. Love those kinds of recipes. Do you have a favourite pumpkin recipe? Or what about a favourite scone recipe? We would love to hear from you.
