How to make the porridge
Start by boiling 2 tablespoons of rolled oats in a pan with 100 ml of water or breast milk. Stir the oats carefully and leave to simmer. This step ensures that the oats are soft and well mixed.
While the oats are simmering, you can mash a ripe banana. The ripe banana not only adds sweetness, but also important nutrients and a creamy texture.
As soon as the oats have reached the desired consistency and have mixed well with the mashed banana, remove the pan from the heat and leave the mixture to cool slightly. This allows the flavors to combine with each other.
Now it’s time to puree the mixture into a mash. Use a hand blender or mixer to ensure that the porridge has a smooth and velvety consistency.
As soon as the porridge has reached the right temperature, you can warm it up in the LIINI porridge warmer. This practical warmer ensures that the porridge is at the ideal temperature for your little one without you having to constantly monitor the microwave.
Now your delicious banana and oatmeal porridge is ready to be enjoyed! This porridge is not only delicious, but also rich in important nutrients for your baby. Bon appétit!
