My toddler loved this recipe! He doesn’t eat much and these are perfect for a healthy snack or meal, so thank you! I only made half the recipe and it still made enough to stock the freezer

I made this and the mixture was too watery and didn’t hold. The flavor was very good, though. Perhaps the Apple was too juicy or the cooked quinoa had too much moisture in it.

I made some changes to recipe. Instead of bear I added turkey and not as much quinoa since babies don’t really like it. No olive oil and no spices. Still tasty.

Hi Yamile! Good question indeed and sorry if it was not clear in the recipe. The oil is to drizzle on top before baking so that the surface will not dry out too much. I’m so glad your little one liked the meatballs, even if a little dry 🙂
Ciao! B

In reply to Barbara Lamperti. My son is also allergic to eggs and I usually sub flaxseed- I tablespoon water to 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed. I plan on trying that when I make this recipe

Great recipe ! Silly question , the 3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil is it to b added along with the other ingredients or is it only to drizzle over the meatballs before baking ?
Just tried cooking it and they are a bit dry on the outside and falling apart but I still like them and I hope my baby will enjoy it too !
Thank you for your wonderful recipes 🙂
