Teething biscuits

So, my little man has started teething.  It's LOADS of fun.... NOT!!!  Well, I really didn't want to buy him the messy, staining, store-bought teething biscuits, so I decided to make some.  I didn't take pictures of this one, sorry guys!

What you will need:

1/2 c Baby single grain cereal (I used rice)
1 c Flour (I used white, you can use wheat, but you will need to add a little extra water)
1/4 c oil (I used canola)
1/2 c applesauce (preferably unsweetened, babies don't need added sugar)
1/4 to 1/2c water

Preheat oven to 350*

Mix all ingredients.  Be sure to add water slowly.  You may find you only need 1/4 c you may find you need a bit more.  Just remember, you can always add more of something, you cannot add less.

Dough will look similar to pie dough, but softer.

Lay out on a lightly floured surface.

You can use a rolling pin if you'd like, but it's not necessary.  Dough should be about 1/8" thick.

Cut into whatever shape you desire/is kid safe and place on a non stick or greased baking sheet.  These won't spread, so they can be side-by-side.

Bake for about 10 minutes.  Check them.  If they still seem too soft, let them go a little longer.  If not, cool and happy teething to your munchkin too!
