  • Apple sauce, one of the very first meals I gave to my kids at 6 months. It has always been a winner. 

From this recipe you can also get what I call Apple water, ( sort of like apple infused water)
It kinda makes drinking water more interesting for kids.

Honestly, I finished a large portion of it 🤦, it was so good. I first tried this pudding in Ghana, and thought this would be great for the kids, and it sure was.

How to serve

1. Serve warm as a meal to your weaning baby.
2. For your older kids it's best served chilled, with a snack like banana cake, honey Bread.

Go ahead and try this, you kids will love it.😋

  • Starter tips for weaning babies 👶🏼 

Mummies stop stressing my babies with big bowl of food and giving yourself high BP 😀

They don’t need much food to get filled just make sure you are making use of every opportunity to give your baby a nutrient dense meal in every spoon.

Of course as they grow old you can gradually increase the meal size.

Hope this was helpful 😃 let me know in the comments.

  • Recipe for 7 Month Old & Picky Eaters.

Mango is going ohhhh, well here is a good one to do before it's off.
It can be thick for your baby and then made light like a smoothie for your toddler and older kids.

It’s suitable for any baby from 7 months & our little fussy eaters, this is a good one.

Try it out and y’all let me know how it goes.

This recipe is a good immune booster for your kids. It can be fortified to fight colds by adding a few drops my “Cold Drops” recipe.

  • Fluffy Pancake Sandwich 🥪 ( by @babyhealthybites)

Well, I leave this yummy combo to your kids tastebuds 🤣
So yummy, fluffy and dry. The blend is heavenly.

You can make this in bulk and freeze in an airtight container.

No long story today, let’s go right to the recipe.

It’s pretty straightforward, just save this for Saturday’s breakfast.😜

Remember to share and engage with the post, we need ginger ohhh😄

Ingredients
🥞 Flour (1cup)
🥞 Corn meal (3 tbsp)
🥞 Chia seeds (2 tbsp)
🥞 1tsp baking powder
🥞 A pinch of salt (I use raw sea salt, much better than the processed salts around)
🥞 1 egg
🥞 2 tbsp oil/melted butter/ ghee
🥞 1 cup of tigernut milk or any other milk will work.

Steps
1. Mix dry ingredients together (flour, baking powder and salt)
2. Mix in wet ingredients ( egg, oil & milk)
3. Now combine the wet with the dry ingredients. (now the secret to fluffy pancakes is not to overmix the batter. It should be lumpy, thick and allowed to rest for about 10 mins)
4. Brush your non stick pan with little oil on low heat.
5. Pour in scoops of your pancake batter, when holes start forming at the top, turn pancake over. 

Filling
1. Fry your sunny side up egg and place between 2 pancakes.
2. You can also add jam or ketchup or mayonnaise (it’s up to you)

  • We keep trying out different variations of this our quick breads. I love them cos they are so fast and easy to make without we are not using the whole kitchen to make it🤣🤣🤣

It’s so versatile, It can be toasted, you can use whatever spread you love, you can use it as a burger bun. So much possibilities with this very simple bread.

Just jejely save this recipe now so you can try it out later. Don’t forget to share

Let’s move to the ingredients and alternatives that can be used.

Ingredients:

1. Almond flour (other flours you can use are all purpose flour, coconut flour, oat flour, Bambara flour, Tigernut flour all the flours I have used have worked well. Of course some flours make the bread more dense than the others.
2. Olive oil ( you can use melted butter, ghee, coconut oil, avocado oil, peanut butter)
3. Egg
4. Baking powder 

Steps
1. Mix all the ingredients together in a well greased pan.
2. Place in an oven to bake

* If using a microwave, bake for about 90 secs on high( mine is 700w) 
* If using an oven, bake for about 5-7 mins.
* If using a pot, you can bake for about 10 mins on low heat.

It’s that straightforward and simple ohhhh🤣🤣🤣
