Lots of Teething Biscuits Recipes

I put all the teething cracker, biscuit, rusk recipes I could find on here, even ones I haven't tried because I remember the trouble I had finding such recipes when I really needed them. I found many of these after most of my daughters' teeth had erupted! If I find more I will add them to this page.

Please check that the ingredients presented in the recipes are appropriate for your child, that includes egg whites, honey, and peanuts. You are using those recipes at your own risk. If you have any questions, please consult with your family or child doctor.

Both my daughters started teething fairly late so whether or not there were eggs in the teething recipe was never much of a concern for me. Since some babies start teething as early as 5 months I thought I would indicate, on the index page, which recipes are eggless or use only egg yolk. This will save you some time if you are looking for a recipe without eggs. I also added a page suggesting egg substitutions. I haven't tried any of the substitutions but when I get feedback from people who have tried some, I amend the file! (Thanks to Erika for making me think of adding this info!)

Enjoy!

More recipes can be found, including most of the ones above, at the Open Directory Project where I am a volunteer Cooking editor, and where I have helped build the Teething Biscuits section.


I have found many of the recipes above on the web. Instead of having a list of links to other sites/pages, I put the recipe on this site. I have given the original authors credit, and put a link to the original pages on the recipe page (that way when some pages magically vanish from the web I will still have the recipes).
