Sweets made from baby porridge “Malyutka”

What else can you make from baby porridge besides pancakes and cookies? In large families, homemade sweets are very popular, made by mother or grandmother from Malyutka porridge. To prepare these sweets you will need the following ingredients: a full pack of mixture (0.5 kg), 3 tbsp. tablespoons butter, 500 ml milk, 2 tbsp. spoons of cocoa powder, 0.5 cups of peeled walnut kernels, a pack of milk or chocolate wafers.

After the milk mixture has boiled for one minute, remove the pan from the heat and cool it. After 30 minutes, pour the walnuts into the pan. The resulting mixture should have the consistency of plasticine. You need to make candies from the sweet mass. For variety, you can sculpt not only round, but also cone-shaped sweets. The molded candies are placed on a large plate on a tray, and crushed wafers are sprinkled on top.

Recipe Suggestions

To make the pieces easy to shape, you should sprinkle your hands with flour. This will prevent the dough from sticking. To prepare such cookies, you can use any children's instant porridge. If desired, you can mix several varieties.

If the honey is very thick, you should warm it up before adding it to the dough. The product will become more liquid. It is best to add walnuts and any dried fruits to cookies. If desired, you can prepare the treat without them. Store the finished cookies in a closed box in a place where there are no foreign odors.

Recipe for baby dry porridge cake

Baking from baby porridge turns out very tender and tasty. The Malyutka porridge cake was no exception. To prepare it you will need the following ingredients: 200 sugar, 200 dry mixture, 2 chicken eggs, 200 g wheat flour, one packet of baking powder. To prepare the cream for the cake you will need 100 g of sugar, dry baby formula and sour cream.

The dough is prepared immediately. Beat sugar and eggs in a small container. Baking powder and flour are gradually added to the resulting mixture. The mass is thoroughly mixed and the dry mixture is added to it. The result should be a thick, homogeneous mass. It is placed in a greased baking dish and placed in the oven for 15-20 minutes (temperature 180 degrees). As soon as the cake acquires a golden color, take it out. While the cake is baking in the oven, you need to prepare the cream for the cake. To do this, mix granulated sugar, Malyutka mixture and sour cream. The result should be a mixture of homogeneous consistency. The baked cake is filled with cream, cut and served. The cake can be decorated with grated chocolate, fruit, jam and everything that your imagination and possibilities can allow.

Baked milk

Let's try replacing water or kefir with baked milk.

Preparing cookies with milk from baby formula, the recipe for which is given below, does not take much time:

• infant formula - 130 g;
• baked milk - 100 g;
• eggs - 2 pcs.;
• wheat flour - 250 g;
• powdered sugar - 120 g;
• vanillin - 1 sachet;
• a pinch of cinnamon.

Step-by-step preparation:

1. In a deep bowl, combine eggs, mixture and powdered sugar. Grind thoroughly.
2. Melt the butter in a water bath and mix it into the prepared mass.
3. After 10 minutes, add flour, vanillin and cinnamon to the dough. Mix everything.
4. Pour the mixture into a pastry bag and squeeze onto a prepared baking sheet. Bake the treat in the oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes.

If your baby doesn't like cinnamon, you don't have to use it for cooking.

Baby porridge roll

Another recipe for instant baby porridge is a soft and juicy roll, which is ideal not only for daily tea drinking, but also for the holiday table. To prepare the roll you will need the following ingredients: 6-7 tbsp. spoons of baby formula (approximately one glass), 1 glass of flour, 3 medium or 2 large chicken eggs, 1 glass of granulated sugar, soda or baking powder, jam, jam or condensed milk for filling.

To prepare, you need to mix flour and sugar, gradually add eggs and soda. All ingredients should be mixed thoroughly. The result should be a liquid, creamy dough. For baking, you need to prepare baking paper or tracing paper; you can also use a regular baking sheet, but it’s not very convenient on it. The dough is poured into a thin layer onto the prepared surface and placed in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes. As soon as the cake is ready (you need to check it with a toothpick), it is taken out of the oven, coated with filling and wrapped in a roll. On top you can decorate it with what you have - sprinkle with powdered sugar, cocoa powder, chopped walnuts, cinnamon, etc.

Baking a treat

When the dough is ready, you need to make blanks from it. To do this, roll small balls from the mass. They should be about the size of walnuts. After this, each ball should be slightly crushed to form a neat cake.

It is recommended to either grease the baking sheet with cream-based butter or cover it with parchment paper. Place all the workpieces on the prepared surface. At the same time, there should be some space between the cakes. Otherwise the cookies will stick together. It is recommended to preheat the oven to 160°C.

Cookies are baked from children's instant porridge for 20 minutes. In this case, the temperature in the oven should not be higher than 180 °C. The delicacy can be served warm.

Baby porridge pancakes

Having simple ingredients from baby porridge in the kitchen, you can bake not only a cake or roll, but also delicious curd pancakes. To prepare them, you need to prepare the following ingredients: 150 g of baby formula, 0.5 ml of kefir, 8 tbsp. spoons of wheat flour, 2 tbsp. spoons of granulated sugar, 1 chicken egg, 60 g of cottage cheese or curd mass, half a teaspoon of soda, a bag of vanilla sugar, a pinch of salt.

Crush the cottage cheese with a fork, add sugar, baby food, vanilla sugar, soda, kefir and salt. Mix everything thoroughly and leave for a few minutes to allow the baby formula to swell. Then add flour to the resulting mixture and mix until the dough acquires a thick consistency. Fry the pancakes in vegetable oil until golden brown. You can serve them with sour cream, jam or condensed milk.

How to knead the dough

To make cookies from baby dry porridge, you need to knead the dough. To do this, add sugar, vanillin and an egg in a deep container. It is recommended to beat the ingredients well. Margarine should be carefully melted in a water bath and mixed with honey and sour cream. The resulting mixture should be poured into a container with egg and sugar.

Separately, mix soda or baking powder and flour. You need to add dry baby porridge and flour to the liquid component of the dough. Everything needs to be mixed well to make a homogeneous mass. You should add nuts and raisins to the finished dough. If desired, they can be placed on top of each workpiece.

Baby porridge cupcake (simple buckwheat porridge recipe)

To prepare this delicacy you will need the following ingredients: 130 g of butter (can be replaced with margarine), 1 glass of dry buckwheat mixture, half a glass of sugar, 3 eggs, 1 teaspoon of soda or baking powder, berries for decoration (blackberries, lingonberries, raspberries, currants or any other). Melt the butter in a small container (this is convenient to do in the microwave). Add sugar to the melted butter, beat lightly with a mixer and add eggs one at a time. Then add baking powder or soda and beat thoroughly with a mixer. Lastly, baby porridge is added, after which the dough is mixed again. Set aside the resulting dough for a couple of minutes so that the porridge swells, then fill the molds with it (about two-thirds, since the dough will rise during baking), decorate with berries on top and put in the oven for 25-30 minutes (bake at 180-200 degrees ).

We didn’t like the porridge, but we eat it in the form of cookies with the whole family.

Dry milk instant porridge for feeding young children “Umnitsa”, manufactured by LLC “Ivanovo Baby Food Plant”, Russia, Ivanovo, is the most affordable in price and variety on the shelves of our children's stores, this particular porridge is given to the poor as social support.

If you believe the manufacturer, the porridge does not contain GMOs, dyes, preservatives, but on the contrary is very healthy, they promise that one serving will provide 30% of the baby’s daily need for vitamins and microelements. And it cooks very quickly, pour boiling water over it, wait a little until it brews and cools down, and the baby is full, and the mother is free for other things.

Our child somehow didn’t really like this porridge; to be honest, my dad didn’t like the taste either))) The child ate it only while we were in the hospital, and only buckwheat and rice, but he immediately refused to eat oatmeal and corn. Actually, our acquaintance was limited to oatmeal, rice, buckwheat and corn porridge.

A little about the design: the dry mixture is sealed in a bag, very well sealed, and the bag is durable, you can’t do it without scissors, then everything is packed in a cardboard box, the design of the box is a “3”, the most ordinary box, on a shelf among cereals from other manufacturers it does not attract attention , and does not arouse interest and desire to buy, one thing distinguishes it: the price is much lower. The shelf life of the porridge is one year. Smells like vanilla. If you squeeze it in your palm it produces an unpleasant synthetic crunch.

While looking for ways to “recycle” the remaining “Clever Girl” on the Internet, I came across a recipe that one of the mothers generously shared, and I will honestly say a huge thank you to her, because this was the only recipe that I wanted to try, and which did not disappoint, because the cookies are made from baby porridge Her recipe is very tasty and the porridge ends instantly. I can’t give a link to the site, because it was a long time ago, and I don’t remember the recipe exactly, I’ll write it as I remember it, that is, how I prepare these cookies now: take 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons of sugar in a small heap, mix, add 100 g butter, mix, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, without a slide, do not extinguish, just add, then pour the porridge as it is, dry from the bag, usually a little more than half the bag is used, and just a little bit of flour, about 1 -2 tablespoons, sometimes it seems that you can do without it. The dough should not be very dry, slightly stick to your hands, and from this dough you make small balls with your hands, place them on a baking sheet and press lightly, the cookies should not be very thin and flat, but like store-bought oatmeal cookies. During the baking process, they rise, brown, sometimes crack a little in the middle and become very similar to store-bought “oatmeal.” The cookies cook very quickly, 15 minutes in the oven, but you just need to put them straight into an oven preheated to 200 degrees, and don’t go too far, otherwise you won’t notice and they will burn very quickly. I always add raisins or lemon/orange zest to cookies, we like it better, the taste becomes richer and more interesting. They are eaten very quickly. Yes, I almost forgot, cookies turn out tasty and crispy only from rice or corn, or when mixing any other (oatmeal, buckwheat) with corn or rice 50X50. But cookies made only from oatmeal or buckwheat are not very good. And my advice is not to make the cookies too big and thick.

Sherbet from Heinz baby porridge

Cocoa powder is mixed with sugar and milk. The resulting mixture is placed on low heat and brought to a boil. Meanwhile, baby porridge is mixed with roasted peanuts. The boiled chocolate mass is added to the resulting mixture. Everything is thoroughly mixed and laid out in a rectangular shape, which should be put in the refrigerator until completely hardened. Once the sherbet has hardened, it can be served with tea or milk.
