There are probably many recipes that you’d like to try for your baby, but are hesitating because they call for the use of cow’s milk. And we all know that cow’s milk is not recommended for infants under one year of age. Most recipes will taste just as well by substituting cow’s milk with breast milk. If you are having trouble pumping, or you need a relatively large quantity of milk, you can also use infant formula in the recipe and nurse baby at other times. This is also a great way to use up extra breast milk in your fridge or freezer before they get spoilt. Many working Moms find that their babies refuse the bottle when they’re away, so using recipes with breast milk may be a great way to make sure they still get Mommy’s milk in their tummies!

Tips for Cooking with Breast Milk or Formula

1. The storage conditions of breast milk should be strictly monitored. Generally speaking, breast milk is good for 6 hours at room temperature, for 6 days in your fridge and for 6 months in the freezer.

2. Breast milk from the fridge can be brought to room temperature and used or placed in a bowl of warm water. You can also thaw and use frozen breast milk.

3. Thawed breast milk cannot be re-frozen.

4. If you’d like to use breast milk as a thinning agent and you freeze baby food, thaw the food first, and then add the breast milk.

5. Reheating breast milk should be fine in most cases but some Moms find that it can make the milk smell unpleasant.

6. Breast milk can be thinner than full fat cow’s milk, so it can affect the structure of your dish.

7. If you’re using formula, don’t keep it for more than 2 hours at room temperature and for more than 24 hours in the fridge. Never freeze formula and if it’s been more than one hour since the baby first started, throw the rest away.

8. Formula may be sweeter than breast milk, so adjust the recipe accordingly.

9. Always take care to sterilize all the equipment used to prepare baby’s food, whether using formula or breast milk.

10 Easy Homemade Baby Food Ideas (No-Cook, Super Fast, Stage 1)

Learn how to make the EASIEST homemade baby food recipes (stage 1) for your little one with these super simple no-cook ideas. Plus: I have the best tips for making them ahead and freezing them so you can batch cook and simplify your days!

Homemade Baby Food

As a mom to three kids, I know firsthand how the urge to make homemade baby food can be both exciting and a little daunting. And if you have a busy schedule or other kids in the house, finding the time to actually do it can seem impossible. But, there are so many healthy foods that you can transform into stage 1 baby food purees with hardly any work or special equipment at all!

TIP: I use a regular blender for all of these recipes, so you don’t need to buy a special baby food maker unless you want to.

Baby Food Recipes for 6, 7, and 8 Month Old Babies

These homemade baby food ideas are designed for younger babies who are still eating thinner purees, but you can of course use them for older babies and toddlers too. Each can be served as is, or you can combine more than one together to create new flavors if you’re feeling creative!

TIP: If you want to add fat or protein to any of these fruit or veggie purees, simply stir in a little whole milk yogurt, coconut cream, or Avocado Puree.

Best Way to Make Baby Food

I’ve found that the easiest and most approachable way to make baby food is to simply use a blender. With fresh ingredients and a little water, breastmilk, or formula to thin it as needed, you can easily make your baby meals without investing in equipment you may not use very long.

TIP: You’ll want to start with at least 1 cup of any base ingredient to ensure that there’s enough in the blender to fully blend up.

Tools You Need to Make Homemade Baby Food

To make these baby food recipes you’ll need:

  • Blender (you could also use an immersion blender if yours is very strong)
  • Water, formula, or breastmilk to thin as needed
  • Knife for chopping produce
  • Spoon
  • Bowls
  • Ice cube tray
  • Freezer bags for storage
  • Baby food storage containers

Stage 1 Baby Food

These baby foods are meant for early eaters as they are typically very thin and easy for a baby to move around in their mouths. I follow the recommendations to wait until 6 months to start solids, so I personally don’t worry excessively about this distinction as I like babies to experience some texture in their purees. (The ones you find at the store are low allergenic foods and are meant for 4+ months.)

Stage 2 Baby Food

These baby foods are typically a little bit thicker, sometimes include more than one ingredient, and offer a wider variety of ingredients. Most babies are ready for these sorts of purees around 7-8 months, or once they’ve mastered thinner purees. (Again, since I like to do a combined baby feeding approach with both baby led weaning and purees, I don’t worry too much about following the calendar to decide when to introduce these.)

TIP: As a backup to my homemade baby foods, I love the options from Amara Organic Baby Food  (paid affiliate link) since you simply need to stir it together with breast milk, formula, or water and it’s ready to serve.

And now, for my ten go-to homemade baby food purees that you don’t even need to cook!

1.

Avocado Puree

To make avocado puree for a baby, you just need a fresh avocado, a blender, and some lemon juice if you plan to store it for later. I sometimes even do this with just a fork if the avocado is super soft! It’s a perfect way to introduce a low allergenic food that’s rich in healthy fats.

TIP: Get the full recipe for Avocado Puree here.

2. Bean Puree

Baby’s early foods don’t have to be all one food group and beans are a great food to have in the mix. You can do this easy bean puree with chickpeas, pinto beans, black beans, or even white beans, thinning it as needed with water, formula, or breastmilk. This is a great puree to mix with a little sweet potato or butternut squash.

TIP: Get the full recipe for Bean Puree here.

3. Blueberry Puree

Using fresh or frozen blueberries, this easy berry puree is loaded with fresh flavor and antioxidants. It’s delicious on its own or stirred into plain whole milk yogurt or baby oatmeal. (Note that it thickens up as it sits in the fridge, so you’ll need to stir it well to serve.)

TIP: Get the full recipe for Blueberry Puree here.

4. Kiwi Puree

With a bright flavor, this puree is great for babies who seem to love flavor—and it’s a fun one to make and store for later. You’ll want to make sure that you choose very ripe and sweet kiwi and taste it before you make the puree to ensure that it’s not too tart. (If it seems tart, you can mix with banana or applesauce.)

TIP: Get the full recipe for Kiwi Puree here.

5. Mango Puree

Using fresh or thawed frozen mango, this baby puree blends up in seconds. It’s bright, flavorful, and a great source of immune-boosting vitamins. Taste your mango to be sure that it’s sweet and not too tart. (If it’s tart, you can add Applesauce or ripe Banana Puree.)

TIP: Get the full recipe for Mango Puree here.

6. Peach Puree

Turn fresh or frozen and thawed peach slices into a super smooth Stage 1 baby food with this easy blender method. You’ll want to strain out the skin since it’s hard to blend up smooth, even with a high powered blender, but that’s so easy to do! This baby food recipe is a nice alternative to applesauce.

TIP: Get the full recipe for Peach Puree here.

7. Whipped Peanut Butter

This may not have occurred to you, but whipped peanut butter is a great baby food! This is a perfect way to introduce baby to peanut butter and to offer it safely there after. You just need to stir water into unsweetened creamy peanut butter until it forms a whipped consistency like yogurt. It’s smooth, not too sticky, and packed with protein.

TIP: Get the full scoop on introducing peanuts to baby here.

8. Pineapple Puree

Blend up fresh or frozen pineapple chunks into a tropical baby food puree that’s smooth and creamy. This is yummy on its own or paired with whole milk plain yogurt. Taste your pineapple to ensure that it’s not too tart. (If it’s tart, you can add Applesauce or ripe Banana Puree. )

TIP: Get the full recipe for Pineapple Puree here.

9. Strawberry Puree

Fresh strawberries blend up into a perfectly smooth homemade puree without the need for any additional liquid. You can serve this as is, or mix with applesauce if desired. The flavor of your berries will determine the flavor of your puree, so be sure to taste them for sweetness.

TIP: Get the full recipe for Strawberry Puree here.

10. Banana Puree

Ripe bananas make great homemade baby food with the help of just a blender. This is a super simple baby food to make at home and it’s easy to digest as a Stage 1 baby food. Use ripe bananas with brown spots to ensure that the puree tastes sweet and is easy for baby to digest.

TIP: Get the full recipe for Banana Puree here.

Homemade Baby Food Storage

The easiest way to store homemade baby food is to add fresh purees to an ice cube tray and freeze. Once frozen, simply pop out the cubes and store in labeled freezer bags for up to 3 months. These are a perfect way to make it easy to send homemade baby food to daycare or to simply get ahead for the coming week.

6 Easy Recipes with Leftover Baby Formula

This dish is hugely popular with large families. After all, it is much more pleasant to eat sweets that were prepared by your beloved mother or grandmother. So, the ingredients are:

  • 500 g of dry infant formula (full pack)
  • 3 tablespoons of butter
  • Half a glass of shelled walnuts
  • 0.5 l of fresh milk optional)

So, the recipe. Pour milk into a small saucepan, add cocoa powder and butter to it. Put everything together on a high heat and, stirring occasionally, bring to a boil. Add the baby formula, boil for almost a minute, after which we turn off the fire and let the mass cool. After half an hour, pour the chopped walnuts into the pan. As a result, we get a mixture that resembles plasticine in consistency. From it we sculpt round or cone-shaped sweets. Put them on a tray or plate. Grind the waffles, sprinkle them on the dish. Dessert is ready!

Truffles

You will need:

  1. 4 cups “Malyutka” (and 0.5 cups of a collapse mixture)
  2. 2.5 glasses of sugar
  3. ¾ cup of milk
  4. 4 tablespoons of cocoa 9000 9000 50 grams oils, coconut.

Sugar, milk, cocoa, butter are mixed and put on a slow fire until the sugar dissolves. Let it cool down and gradually stir in the milk mixture until the consistency of a very thick dough. From the resulting mass, hands dipped in water form balls, which are then rolled in infant formula and sprinkled with coconut flakes.

Preparation:

Baking with infant formula is very easy. In this recipe, it is a tender cake, which is prepared on the basis of infant formula, sour cream, eggs and sugar. The pie is prepared with or without cream (to your taste). I've tried both ways, and in all cases, it turns out very tasty. It's nice to decorate the cake with berries, nuts or pour it with condensed milk. Please note that sugar is included in infant formula, so be careful when adding it to dough or cream. Purpose: For an afternoon snack Main ingredient: Dough Dish: Pastries / Pies

Cake “Malyutka”

We need the following products:

for test:

  1. 200 grams of sugar
  2. 1 cup “Baby”
  3. 2 eggs
  4. 1 cup flour,
  5. Squirrel bag.

For cream:

  1. 100 grams of sugar

Beat eggs and sugar, add flour and baking powder, then baby formula, knead the dough (thick). Place in a deep baking dish, bake in the oven until golden brown (medium temperature). To prepare the cream, beat "Baby" with sugar and sour cream. The finished cake is poured over with a thick cream and put in the refrigerator.

Recipe 4. Baby cake

The dessert got its name from the famous infant formula. Of course, you can use not only the "baby", but any other powder. The result is a tender and very tasty cake that will delight every member of the family. To prepare you will need:

  • A glass of sugar (200 g)
  • A glass of infant formula
  • 2 chicken eggs
  • A glass of flour (wheat)
  • A packet (serving) of baking powder

Separately, to prepare the cream, you need:

  • 100 g of granulated sugar
  • Half a glass of baby formula
  • Half a glass of sour cream

First of all, as always, eggs and granulated sugar are beaten. Gradually add flour and a portion of baking powder to this, mix. After that, add the baby powder mixture to the dough. The result is a thick homogeneous consistency. It must be laid out in a special baking dish, greased with oil. The cake is baked for 15-20 minutes at medium temperature, until golden brown. While the cake is baking, make the cream. To do this, mix the baby formula and sour cream with sugar until a homogeneous consistency. Fill the finished cake with cream, cut and serve.

Biscuits

The following ingredients are needed to make cookies:

  1. 300 grams of infant formula
  2. 250 grams of sugar
  3. 200 grams of butter
  4. 50 grams of cocoa 100005

Water with sugar is brought to a boil, oil is added. Boil over low heat. As soon as the syrup begins to thicken, remove from heat. Cocoa and baby formula are mixed and added to the syrup in small portions until thickened. Cookies of any shape are molded from warm dough, rolled in cocoa, powdered sugar or poured with hot chocolate.

Step by step preparation

  1. We need simple ingredients to make this cake. It often happens (mothers know) that infant formula remains (crumples or costs more than the due date). It is a pity to throw it away, but it would seem that there is nowhere to attach it. From the mixture you can cook not only sweets, but also excellent pastries.
  2. Whisk eggs, baby food, flour and sugar. You can do this with a whisk or a mixer (at your request and as you prefer).
  3. Knead the dough thoroughly, there should be no lumps. The consistency of the dough should be not too thick and not too liquid (like thick sour cream).
  4. Pour the dough into a pre-greased form, send it to the oven preheated to 200 degrees for 25-30 minutes (the temperature during baking should not exceed 180 degrees).
  5. After baking, let the dough stand for a while, then take it out of the mold, cut it and serve it to the table. If desired, the cake can be sprinkled with powdered sugar or decorated with fruit. The cream for this cake is made on the basis of sour cream and infant formula. I decided to make a cake without cream, it turned out just as delicious. If you want to make it even tastier, then beat a glass of sour cream with baby formula, you get an airy cream.

Pancakes

You can bake pancakes from infant formula. The ingredients for them are:

  1. 500 grams of water
  2. 18 scoops of dry mix
  3. 2 eggs
  4. 1.5 tablespoons of vegetable oil,
  5. salt,
  6. at least 6 flour,
  7. as needed.

Mix water and mixture with a whisk in a bowl. Add eggs, sugar and salt, mix again. Flour is added spoon by spoon, stirring with a whisk, until the consistency of liquid sour cream. The dough should be infused for 30 minutes, after which vegetable oil is added to it, the pancakes are mixed and baked in a well-heated frying pan (the frying pan is greased with vegetable oil for the first time). Each pancake is smeared with butter. Enjoy your meal!

Recipe 5: Baby Formula Roll

This is another dessert recipe that uses baby formula as an ingredient. As a result, we get a soft, juicy roll, which is suitable for both an ordinary tea party and a festive table. We will need:

  • A glass of infant formula (approximately 6-7 tablespoons)
  • A glass of wheat flour
  • 2-3 chicken eggs (depending on their size)
  • A glass of sugar (+- to taste)
  • Soda (baking powder can be used instead)
  • Jam or marmalade or any other filling

Infant formula mixed with flour and sugar. Eggs and soda are added to them. All ingredients are thoroughly beaten until a liquid, sour cream-like dough is formed. In the meantime, prepare tracing paper or special paper for baking. You can also use a regular baking sheet, but this is not so convenient. Pour the dough in a thin layer onto a prepared, oiled surface, after which we hide it in the oven for about 15 - 30 minutes, depending on the temperature. When the dough has turned into a soft, but ready-made cake, we take it out of the oven, grease it with the filling and wrap it in the form of a roll. From above, you can decorate the dessert with chocolate chips, cinnamon, powdered sugar and any other spices.

All these recipes are irrefutable proof that there are no extra products in the kitchen. Even infant formula, which many people think is not suitable for anything other than feeding children, turns out to be a very useful addition to many dishes. Of course, this is not a complete list of what can be prepared with the addition of this miracle powder. Well, the most important thing is the absence of complex actions and expensive ingredients. Almost all products are in every housewife's kitchen. Cook easily and enjoy. Enjoy your meal!

Recipe for dessert with apple marmalade

For baking you will need:

  1. Three eggs.
  2. Sugar (1 tablespoon).
  3. 7 grams baking powder.
  4. Apple jam - 1 cup.
  5. Three tablespoons of milk formula.
  6. Wheat flour (the same).
  7. Wafers, nut kernels.

To make a dessert, you need to grind eggs with granulated sugar. The components are whipped with a mixer until foam is formed. Add sifted flour, milk mixture and baking powder. The ingredients are rubbed with a spatula or spoon.

The resulting mass is placed in a bowl lined with baking paper and greased with butter. Cook in the oven for seven minutes.

Remove the cake from the mold and let it cool. Cut lengthwise into several pieces of the same size. Cover with a layer of jam. Place the dessert tiers on top of each other.

Walnut kernels and waffles should be ground with a blender. A cake from a baby formula according to a recipe with the addition of jam is sprinkled with the resulting crumbs.

Powdered milk cake

Do you remember here in urgent questions I asked about the recipe for Malyutka's baby formula cake on behalf of Ulyana? Ulyana wrote to me asking if I knew such a cake recipe from the times of the USSR, because she has a lot of good childhood memories associated with this cake, my mother baked such a cake for every new year, but unfortunately the recipe was lost, but I would like to repeat it now for your child.

I did not know such a cake, so I decided to ask you, dear visitors of my culinary blog, and now, thanks to Margarita, the recipe has been found! It is very valuable that it really is not on the Internet, we searched with Ulyana and did not find it, everything is not right. And Margarita helped us a lot, thank you!

I looked at the recipe and since now I also have a small baby doll at home who eats infant formula, I also really wanted to make such a cake. So I share not only the recipe, but also step-by-step photos of making a cake from infant formula and sour cream.

Very tasty cake turned out! Only I replaced sour cream with homemade, thick, unsweetened yogurt, everything turned out great! And also keep in mind that the cake turns out to be sweet, after all, the baby formula is already sweet in itself, so I would take less sugar next time. In the cake itself 2/3 cup, in the cream 1/4 cup.

This cake can be baked for children's birthdays, thanks to the presence of baby formula, the cake is also healthy.

In order to prepare such a baby cake from powdered milk formula, I needed: 2 eggs 1 glass of sugar 1 glass of sour cream 1 tsp. soda 1 cup Malyutka (can be replaced with any dry milk mixture) 1 cup flour

Cream:

1/2 cup sugar 1 cup sour cream

1 cup Malyutka

I broke the eggs, poured sugar into them.
Whipped for 5 minutes. It turned out such a thick, white, fluffy cake, like a cream. Further, the mixer is no longer required, the dough is kneaded with a spoon, like a biscuit.
I poured the soda into yogurt (according to the recipe into sour cream), mixed it so that it was extinguished.
Poured yogurt (sour cream) into beaten eggs.
I poured out the dry infant formula, gently mixed the dough with a spoon from the bottom up so that all the lumps dispersed.
I sifted the flour and mixed everything in the same way.
The result is such an airy dough, not very liquid and not very thick.
Then you can bake cakes in the oven, you can in a slow cooker. There was a lot of dough, so Margarita advised him to divide it into two parts and bake two cakes. I decided to bake in a slow cooker and immediately the entire volume.

To do this, greased the bowl with butter, sprinkled with semolina. She poured out the dough and baked in the Baking mode for 65 minutes, then turned it on again for 20 minutes. There is a lot of dough, the cake turned out to be high, so I slightly increased the baking time.

If you are going to bake in the oven, then place the mold with the dough in a preheated oven and bake at 180 degrees for about 40-50 minutes. Check readiness with a wooden skewer.

Here is a biscuit cake I have turned around, very fluffy, soft, airy. Cool it down and cut it in two.
For the cream I mixed baby formula, sugar and yogurt (sour cream). Whipped with a mixer.
Covered the cake with cream. And the truth is, as Ulyana wrote, the cream is amazingly delicious!
Topped the cake with chocolate chips and garnished with whipped cream. I put it in the refrigerator overnight.
Then you can cut into pieces and drink tea.
