Breastmilk yogurt melts

I recently got asked to share my recipe for breastmilk yogurt melts. It has been almost a year since my nursling self weaned, but I still remember this easy recipe. I found these little melts were great for a teething toddler. and my daughter who was 9 when I first made these even loved them.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 1 cup breast milk
  • 2 tablespoons ground oats (optional for thicker consistency)
Put mixture in a ziplock bag and trim a corner off. On a cookie sheet small enough to fit in your freezer lay out some wax paper and use the ziplock bag to squeeze out small circles onto to the wax paper. When the sheet is full of dots place in the freezer. It won't take very long for the to freeze.
