Organic whole oats are an excellent source of fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Choose oats that are packed in a gluten-free environment. Oats are a gluten-free grain but avoid if strict paleo, I've used them in baby rusks due to their binding properties. I find they don't crumble like coconut flour rusks do, making them safer for babies. Most babies will only chew on the rusk and not consume them until older.
