Meal ideas for an 11-month-old baby

Pasta with zucchini cream: a meal idea for an 11-month-old baby to serve with cutlery

Baby-led weaning (BLW) allows babies to discover a wide variety of foods independently. Babies will begin by exploring foods in their raw form using their hands. At the start of BLW , a baby's fine motor skills are not yet fully developed, so recipes with larger portions will be offered. From 6 months onwards, a pre-filled spoon will help babies eat smooth textures like a grown-up. There are several meal ideas for an 11-month-old that can be enjoyed with a pre-filled spoon, such as spreads, pasta, or purees. A recipe for pasta with zucchini cream will awaken a baby's taste buds. It's only around 12 months that a fork will be introduced, as its use requires more coordination. , meals for an 11-month-old will be finger foods before 12 months, and then with a fork thereafter.
