I think Jennifer Robins is one of my favorite bloggers since she just keeps putting out amazing cookbooks.

I raved about the New Yiddish Kitchen that she co-wrote with Simone Miller (hello amazing bagels and bagel dogs) and now she's done it again with her new book, The Paleo Kids Cookbook.

The Paleo Kids Cookbook is a great resource for anyone who wants their children to eat healthy, gluten-free food and actually like it.

I am a sucker for kids food. Sue me, but kids food is like the ultimate in comfort food for me. Chicken nuggets, fish sticks, quesadillas, mac and cheese, grilled cheese, corn dogs, pizza pockets, soft pretzels, funnel cakes, gummy worms, waffles, pancakes, french toast sticks, oh man, I could go on and on and eat this stuff every day if I could.  

But guess what.

Every single one of these is in this book in an allergy-friendly, much healthier than the normal way. So yeah, this book is a fave of ours already.

If you've been struggling to find food that your kids will like, you should check The Paleo Kids Cookbook out. Not only are the recipes fun to eat but they are also great for making things that look what like other kids eat at school, birthday parties, etc, so your kid doesn't have to be the only one not eating the animal crackers.

And every recipe is grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, peanut-free, shellfish-free, and soy-free so most of the major allergies are avoided! This makes preparing food for my kids' schools a breeze.

Plus many of these are fun to actually cook WITH your kids.

The verdict on this paleo cereal from both my sons? “Yummy!”

Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C).
  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl. The dough should be thick, but able to be piped.
  • Once desired consistency is reached, spoon mixture into a sandwich bag or piping bag.
  • Cut a small tip off the corner of the sandwich bag.
  • On a parchment-lined baking sheet, pipe small dollops of dough, about 1/3 inch (7 mm) in diameter (or to your size preference).
  • Bake for around 10 to 12 minutes, depending on your oven, then remove and allow to cool. The nuggets should be nicely browned and will crisp more upon cooling, after about 5 minutes or so. Many kids love these as a fun finger food versus a cereal to submerge in milk, but they are delicious however you decide to serve them!

Notes

FOR LITTLE HANDS: Allow your child to help mix the dough ingredients and help pipe the cereal if your helper is a little older.

    I love the taste of them and my kids too. But ours usually do crumble apart and not really stick together. Do you know the reason why the crumble so badly?

      Glad you like them, Jennifer would be happy to hear that! And as for the crumbling, I’m not absolutely sure, but my thought is that it’s because there really isn’t a binder, like eggs, in it to hold it together very well. I’ve never tried an egg in it, but I wonder if that would help…

    Can you use just all coconut flour if you can’t access cassava?

      Unfortunately no, the way coconut flour works/acts is completely different than cassava. I haven’t personally tried it, so not sure how it will work, but you might be able to use almond flour instead of cassava.

    Thanks so much for this recipe! I love the idea of using a piping bag-so much easier than rolling out by hand. How would I store these so that they don’t lose their crispness?

      I typically just store them in a glass pyrex or ziploc bag at room temp. They don’t last very long in my house so I can’t say how long they’d last crisp though, lol!
