Help making organic bunny cookies?????!!!!!!

[texastornado88]

I went to walmart and found Earth’s Best products for babies. I picked up their whole grain oatmeal cereal for babies and 3 jars of their organice baby food: sweet potatoes, apple, and zucchini broccoli medley which also inclused whole wheat couscous and peas- none of them have additives. Is there anyway to turn this stuff into good bunny cookies or treat crackers?

I would not use any prepared food to make anything with. I’m not sure what’s in the cereal so I’d leave that out!! I looked up ingredients for a baby oatmeal cereal

OAT FLOUR (CONTAINS WHEAT), DRY SKIM MILK, PALM OLEIN, POTATO MALTODEXTRIN, CANOLA OIL, COCONUT OIL, SUNFLOWER OIL, MINERAL AND VITAMINS (FERROUS FUMARATE, NICOTINAMIDE, THIAMINE MONONITRATE, RIBOFLAVIN), BIFIDOBACTERIUM LACTIS.

Way too much stuff in there, they should not have dairy and the oat is oat flour so starchy without the goodness of a whole grain. Bunnies should have little to no grains. You could use some oats in a cookie, but not this. For sure not baby food. (If you have a dog though, this sounds fine for a dog or you could donate it to a woman’s sheter etc)

For now I’d use the baby food (the jars not cereal) -in future I’d use the actual food (apple etc) in a blender (course-remove seeds). Add enough oats (organic rolled PLAIN not quick oats) and mashed up pellets to make a paste, drop onto a baking sheet (size about the size of a pinky nail-small treats!) and bake for twenty at 350. I refridgerate and keep for a couple of weeks. Good luck!

The great thing about bunny cookies is that you can just make a recipe up yourself! It’s not like human cookies where they’ll turn out bad if you decide to add twice the amount of flour or something, haha.

Just use any combination of ground pellets, chopped up fruit (fresh or dried), and maybe some juice and oats. Mush it all together to make your “dough” then bake it at low heat for a long time until they are hard and crunchy. They’ll love it!

Well on the box it says organic whole grain oat flour, vitamin e, and electrolytic iron. It says no genetically engineered ingredients and it’s USDA organic. It says it’s gentle and easy to digest. Again it’s Earth’s Best so i don’t know……..

It’s gentle and easy to digest…for human babies, not for bunnies! Bunnies have different stomachs and nutritional requirements, so it’s best to stay away from processed food made specifically for humans and just make your own bunny treats from scratch.

Very true- i can turn it into dog biscuits instead. Can i use the organic pureed sweet potato, apple and zucchini broccoli ones still- if i use the pellets and ground oats? I really want the best for my buns. Could I grind up the oats and pellets in the blender?
