Cheesy Biscuits

20 Comments

I don’t know of a single toddler who hasn’t gone through a phase of picky eating – even if it is just short phase. Something seems to happen when babies turn into toddlers: stubbornness, independence, the need for control and curiosity all appeare from nowhere. Cooking food together can help to harness this desire for control and turn meals into positive events. My daughter loves being involved in meal preparation. Since I become a mom I less cook complex dishes, most of the time I just need quick and tasty food that all the family will enjoy! This time we made Cheesy Biscuits simple and delicious food – recipe below.

Cheesy Biscuits

Recipe

INGREDIENTS

50 g self-raising flour, plus some for dusting

40 g butter

40 g parmesan cheese

10 g (2 tbsp) cheddar cheese

½ tbsp water

*makes 12

*suitable for freezing

*suitable from 12 months

*Prep time 25 minutes

*Cooking 10 minutes

PREPARATION

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350ºF/Gas 4

Grate parmesan and cheddar. Take butter out of the fridge at least an hour beforehand, to soften.

Mush the cheese into the butter with a fork. Mix in the self-raising flour. Sprinkle over the water and squeeze the mixture together with hands until you have a ball of dough. Dust the flour all over the table/board and rolling pin to prevent sticking. Roll out the dough to about 4 mm thick.

Cut out the shapes with a cookie cutter and place them on the baking tray.

Enjoy!

Do you cook with your kids?

  • I’m ALL about the pregnancy hormones right now. Is there some kind of #week25 peak? I’m just a big old rollercoaster of happy and sad - a particular low point, yesterday, was sobbing whilst watching kids’ film UP. I mean... 😳 One minute I’m feeling anxious, the next I’m really annoyed and five minutes later I’m feeling on top of the bloody world. It’s exhausting 😄 Any tips? #pregnancyhormones 🤰🌸
  • When you have toddler or preschooler, I always tend to keep in mind that they need to have exposure to the real thing before we work or talk with abstract representations of it. And this is particularly true for nature. Spending lots of time in nature, getting dirty, seeing bugs, hearing them buzz is a key experience for little humans! Last week we spent lots of time exploring, reading and learning about bees! Check my stories too 😉🐝 #montessorimonday
  • Morning lovely people! Hope your day is happy and bright! Weather is gorgeous today, after all that rain we had! I’m super busy those days...#sendsomehelp 😁 🌸
  • This legend of ours! Thank you for looking after us! Thank you for the endless ‘it will be ok’ hugs of reassurance for always encouraging me to follow my dreams but most of all thank you for being kind and loving father to our daughter ( and soon extra one 😁).. It takes a village to keep this all together and you’re most definitely the chief 💖 #happyfatherday #fathersday
  • #ad Father’s Day 2019 is almost upon us and this year I’ve planned something a little different than the same old gift of socks and box of chocolates. No longer exclusively a tool for children, LEGO can appeal to fathers too. And while we love to join Mia and play #LEGO with her this year we wanted to surprise dad with one of the many @LEGO creations. After a little research I’ve picked this LEGO Technic Porsche 911 RSR. This 1,580-piece set will definitely keep your dad entertained (or frustrated 😁) for hours and could be the closest he will ever get to the 510bhp GTE racer. Building this model was the last week highlight in our house and not sure who got more excited Mia or daddy 👌🏻Happy house and total Father’s Day win!!! . You can picked one for your dad by heading to link in my bio 😉 #Advertisement #FathersDay #LEGOTechnic
  • Tuesday thoughts - I am driven, focused and hard-working, I have so many things I want to accomplish and goals on top of goals! I like to spend time with my family and absolutely need my me time! There are so many list of things about me and things I want to do but at the top of all my list is always being a MOM! I have one amazing daughter and other one on the way who are my number one priority at all times. They are what give me my strength and determination, I put them above everything and guess what I can still be and do all of those things that are me and about me, without losing myself and still be a great momma! Mom guilt is such a real thing and there are so many mom's that run themselves down trying to take care of everything for everyone else without a thought for themselves! It ends up being cycle for years on end until they are so deep in that hole climbing out seems almost impossible! Mom's have a tendency of putting everyone's needs ahead of their own but your needs are so important, who you are outside of being a mom is so important too! So love your babies hard but don't forget to be you and do you, for you sometimes too! You will be stronger and your babies will thrive because of it! #momguilt #bekindtoyourself 🌸

  • Introducing Sewing - Montessori Way 🧵(BLOGGED) . I always look for practical activities that are culturally and socially relevant and appealing in my home. But sometimes can be a bit tricky to find materials I could use that would be both appeal to the three year old and stay as appealing and engaging until she is six. For me, the answer was sewing (and I personally love it) . I wanted to create activities that are interesting, creative and engaging. The hands is the brains connection to the world around us. In today’s world there is a great deal of concerns about children’s development of fine motor skills. Like every parent sometimes I FOUND MYSELF STRUGGLING  how to minimalise screen time and as much as possible increase developing fine motor skills. With this blog post I will start my serious of Montessori inspired sewing activities. This post is introduction to sewing for three years old and starts with simple handwork of cutting and stringing beads. The main skills I’m looking to develop at this time are finger strength and dexterity, scissor skills, and eye-hand coordination. Those are first preliminary lessons to sewing that I’ve introduce to my daughter...head to link in my bio to read what have we been up to 🧵👧🏻👩🏼 #sewingwithkids #montessorisewing
  • #ad This week has been super busy in our house, jobs, meetings, plus trying our best to organise an entertaining half term for our daughter! I feel pretty exhausted! But there is something to look forward to this weekend. The official Big Lunch with @pgtips takes place this Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd June! PG Tips has partnered with The Big Lunch, an initiative created by the Eden Project @edencommunities to encourage people all over the nation to spend quality time with each other over food and a cuppa. The aim is to bring millions of people together to share friendship, food and fun over a cuppa. Every year over 6 million people take to their streets, gardens and neighbourhoods to join in for a few hours. We are going to invite some friends for #cuppastogether and enjoy #TheBigLunch 👌🏻🧺☕️🍪
