- *Honey can contain the bacteria that causes infant botulism so children less than 12 months old shouldn’t have honey. Honey is safe for children one year of age and older.
- Preheat oven to 190°C and line two baking trays with baking paper. Sift flour, baking powder and salt.
- Place olive oil, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl and using an electric mixer or handheld blender, beat until it is smooth and creamy.
- Add the honey and egg and beat well.
- Combine the sifted dry ingredients a little at a time, alternating with the prepared a2 Platinum® toddler milk drink (if the mixture is too firm, add a few extra drops of a2 Milk™ Full cream).
- Drop carefully from a teaspoon onto trays, press lightly with a fork tip that has been covered in a little flour and bake for around 8–10 minutes or until golden brown.
- Store cookies in an airtight container.
- Why not experiment with the kiddies and add other ingredients to the mix (e.g. 1⁄2 cup of sultana)?
