What should I offer for baby's breakfast?
There's no need to prepare a completely different breakfast every morning. The main idea is to gradually vary the foods, textures, and flavors offered to the baby, according to their age and abilities.
Pancakes, muffins, pancakes, suitable fruits, cereal-based preparations… there are plenty of options to get out of the famous "what should I give him/her this morning?" dilemma. And some recipes can even be prepared in advance or frozen to simplify those mornings when everything is moving a little too fast.
Breast milk or formula also remains an important part of a baby's diet during weaning. Solid breakfast is gradually introduced to supplement their diet, without needing to aim for a specific amount at each meal.
No need to vary it every day
Offering variety does not mean inventing a new recipe every morning.
You can absolutely bake a batch of pancakes or muffins and offer them several times a week, then change the recipe the following week. This allows your baby to enjoy familiar foods while regularly discovering new flavors.
And if your baby eats very little some mornings, there's no need to turn breakfast into a battle. As with other meals, their appetite can vary from day to day.
