    Oats Khichdi Recipe for Babies

    Oats Khichdi: Easy, quick, one pot wholesome meal for babies and toddlers made with pressure cooker. Oats khichdi is a best alternativeย for dal khichdi when your baby is bored of it. I have tried this oats khichdi last week, the method is similar to the vegetables dal khichdi by simply replacing the rice with oats. It turned out tasty and my little daughter finished her lunch without any complaints! I was happy that I got a new version of khichdi, do try this oats khichdi for a change and I hope your little ones at home like this khichdi. Oatsย khichdi can be given to babies from 8 months after introducing oats, moong dal and vegetables separately.

    Here is how to make easy oatsย khichdi recipe for babies, toddlers and kids.
