Baby weaning recipes for babies over 6 months old 

Whether your little one’s at the very start of their weaning journey or well on their way to three meals a day, discover a whole range of yummy, healthy baby weaning recipes - all designed to tickle tiny taste buds and establish healthy eating habits from day one.  

From the moment your baby is ready for their first taste of solid food, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to delicious and nutritious baby weaning recipes.

From single veggie purees to first fruity tastes that your baby will go bananas for, discover our suggestions for first weaning foods:

• Single veggie purees made from vegetables like peas or parsnips.
• Scrumptious spoonfuls of fruity purees made from apples or strawberries.
• Baby-led weaning foods like soft carrot sticks, cool cucumber, and sweet potato wedges. 

At around 7 months old, your little one will be getting used to lots of different tastes and textures as they enjoy a weaning diet containing a variety of solid foods and flavours.

Whether you’re looking for baby-led weaning ideas or are ready to move on to thicker purees and lumpier textures, we've got you covered for breakfast, lunch and dinner as your little one continues to enjoy their weaning adventure.

Take a look at our healthy and tasty baby food recipes, including baby porridge and banana, cauliflower cheese puree, and carrot and lamb hotpot. You’ll also find plenty of ideas for different types of finger food that your 7-month-old baby might be ready to try.

By now, your baby may well be turning into a weaning pro! You might notice that they’re becoming more independent when feeding with a spoon or when exploring different types of finger foods.

If they started with fruit and vegetable purees, you’ve probably progressed to making them thicker in texture and complete with lumps to help your baby adjust. At 10 months, it’s time to think about weaning recipes that include chunkier foods, like:

• Salmon and pea patties - something a little different.  
• Spaghetti bolognese - a true tasty classic. 
• Tuna and veggie bake - a firm family fave. 

Do not leave your little one unattended whilst they’re eating or drinking.

When it comes to baby-led weaning recipes, 10 months is the ideal age to introduce a wider variety of finger foods, including baby-friendly sandwiches (finger-sized strips or cut in small pieces), hard-boiled eggs, and strips of cooked chicken.
