Once your baby starts eating solid food, a whole new world opens up for them. Whether you're going the traditional spoon-feeding route or trying baby-led weaning, you're likely starving for ideas for what to feed your baby. Making your own baby food can seem daunting, but with a little planning, it's super easy – and it can be cheaper than buying prepared baby food.

From thin purees to full finger-food meals, here are some baby food recipes for every stage of your solid feeding journey.

Baby food recipes for 6 to 8 months

Babies are typically ready to start eating solid foods around 6 months. Signs that they're ready include having good head control, being able to sit up, and showing an interest in food. If your baby watches you while you eat, opens their mouth when you offer them a spoonful of food, or even tries to grab food off your plate, those are good indicators that they're ready.

You can start your baby off with just about any pureed, single-ingredient food – like bananas, berries, or many of the foods listed below. 

The exceptions are the top allergenic foods, such as fish, wheat, eggs, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, and dairy. It's best to give your baby low-allergy foods at the very beginning, like apple or chicken puree. Once you know they can handle those foods, you can start introducing potentially allergenic foods.

When introducing your baby to a common allergen, serve it for three to five days before introducing another type of food. That way, if your baby has an allergic reaction, it'll be easier to tell what caused it.

Try these baby food recipes for your 6- to 8-month-old:

  • Apple and pear sauce
  • Baby oats with prunes
  • Butternut squash puree
  • Green pea puree
  • Mango and banana puree
  • Peach or nectarine puree
  • Roasted pears
  • Sweet potato puree
  • Turkey or chicken puree
  • Whipped cauliflower
  • Yogurt and berry swirl
  • Zucchini puree

Baby food recipes for 9 to 12 months

By the time your baby is about 9 months old, they're ready for some more complex dishes – often, you'll find yourself feeding them whatever you and the rest of your family are eating.

While you're expanding your baby's eating horizons, remember they still don't have that many teeth and can't chew hard or crunchy produce like raw carrots – and be on the lookout for choking hazards, like whole grapes and popcorn. But there are still plenty of other options for babies at this age: flaky salmon, ground beef, roasted vegetables, baked potatoes, pasta dishes… the list goes on.

If your baby doesn't like new textures, don't worry. The key at any age is to offer your baby a variety of foods and to keep trying. Even if they don't like the food at first, keep offering it to them – sometimes, you may have to offer your baby a food up to 20 times before they'll accept it.

By this age, your baby is also typically ready to start trying out finger foods, like O-shaped toasted oat cereal, banana slices, or well-cooked pasta cut into bite-size pieces, about a ¼ of an inch in size. Several of the recipes below, like guacamole, hummus, and whipped cauliflower, make perfect dips to pair with finger foods so your baby can start learning to eat independently. It'll be messy, of course, but it's a great time for them to practice their hand-eye coordination and skills with their newfound pincer grasp.

If you're ready for some more food adventures with your baby, try adding spices to their meals. While it isn't recommended to give babies added salt or sugar in their diet until they're at least 2 years old, fresh herbs and other spices are fair game (and a little added salt is okay). Try adding cinnamon to their oatmeal or rosemary to their ground beef.

And if you really want to experiment with new flavors, your baby may even enjoy a bit of spicy food – but avoid foods with a lot of added sugar, salt, or processing. (If you're a fan of spicy food yourself and ate it while breastfeeding, your baby might even have some built-in tolerance for spice.)

Try these recipes for your 9- to 12-month-old:

  • Asparagus risotto
  • Baby guacamole
  • Barley and mushroom mash
  • Broccoli and cauliflower cheese
  • Chicken curry with green beans and zucchini
  • Coconut milk rice pudding with blueberry compote
  • Homemade hummus
  • Lentil and spinach stew
  • Pasta with spinach and ricotta
  • Oatmeal with apples 
  • Quinoa, black beans, and corn
  • Rice with peas, carrots, and egg
  • Root veggie mash
  • Salmon, asparagus, and peas
  • Shepherd's pie
  • Smashed chickpea and butternut squash chili
  • Tomato and avocado scramble
  • Tropical fruit salad

Strawberry Applesauce

Ingredients:

4 large organic apples — washed, peeled, cored and chopped (Most varieties work, just avoid tart ones like Granny Smith. Buy organic whenever possible as apples have some of the highest levels of pesticide residue)
10-20 organic strawberries — washed, hulled and chopped (Frozen are okay to use as well — strawberries do not ripen further once picked — but avoid buying underripe fruit. Buy organic whenever possible as strawberries have high levels of pesticide residue.)
Cinnamon (optional)

Directions:

  1. Pour water into a pot until it is about 1 inch deep and bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Place the chopped apples into a steamer basket and place the basket into the pot. The water should not touch the bottom of the basket. Cover pot with a tight fitting lid and steam apples for about 7 minutes, until they are easily pierced with a fork. If you are using frozen strawberries, steam them along with the apples. Otherwise, the strawberries do not need to be cooked.
  3. Place apples and strawberries into your Sage Baby Puree & Blend food processor and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, place the apples and strawberries into a large mixing bowl and blend with the immersion blender.
  4. Top with a pinch of cinnamon if desired.

Quick tip! When stored in an airtight container, Strawberry Applesauce will stay fresh for up to 3 days in the refrigerator and up to 3 months in the freezer.

Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric

Ingredients:

1 head of organic cauliflower — Washed and cut into florets. Discard rough stem.
2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon of Kosher or coarse grain sea salt
1 teaspoon of organic Turmeric (Whenever possible, buy organic dried spices as they are far less likely to have been irradiated.)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Place cauliflower florets into a baking dish. Add the olive oil, salt and turmeric. Toss with a wooden spoon so the cauliflower is covered evenly with the olive oil and spices.
  3. Place the baking dish into the oven on the middle rack and roast for 25-30 minutes, mix with a wooden spoon about halfway through.
  4. Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes.

Beef Barley and Veggies

Ingredients:

1/4 cup of pearl barley — rinsed thoroughly in a strainer under cold running water
1/4 lb. of ground beef or beef tenderloin — if using beef tenderloin, chop into small pieces before cooking
1/4 cup of organic low sodium beef or chicken stock
1 organic carrot — washed, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup of Portobello mushrooms — washed and chopped
1 tablespoon of fresh flat leaf parsley — washed and finely chopped  

Directions:

  1. Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Add barley and let boil for 1 minute. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook for about 15 minutes until all the water is absorbed and the barley is tender.  If necessary, add more purified water during the cooking process.
  2. Pour water into a pot until it is about 1 inch deep and bring to a boil over high heat. Place chopped carrots and mushrooms into a steamer basket and place the basket into the pot, be sure the water doesn’t touch the bottom of the basket. Cover with a tight fitting lid and steam for 5-7 minutes.
  3. While the barley and veggies are cooking, bring 1/4 cup of the stock to a boil over high heat in a small/medium skillet. Add the beef and let cook until no longer pink inside, about 2 minutes.  Break up the beef with the end of a spatula or wooden spoon while cooking so the pieces stay nice and small.
  4. To serve, finely chop veggies and beef, mix with barley and top with a touch of the chopped parsley. If necessary, place the meal into a blender or food processor and pulse until the proper consistency for your baby is achieved.

Quick tip! Store the extra in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer.

Leek and Lima Whipped Potatoes

Ingredients:

1 large or 2 medium organic Yukon Gold potatoes - washed, peeled and chopped
1 large leek - remove and discard rough dark green top and root. Chop and wash thoroughly in a strainer to remove all dirt and sand.

Directions:

  1. Pour water into a pot until it is about 2 inches deep and bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Put potatoes, leek and lima beans into a steamer basket and place into the pot.  Make sure the water does not touch the bottom of the steamer basket.  Cover with a tight fitting lid.
  3. Steam for about 12 minutes until the potatoes are cooked all the way through.
  4. Place potatoes, leek and lima beans into a food processor and blend until smooth.  

Quick tip! Add a few tablespoons of the cooking water, low sodium veggie or chicken broth, breast milk or formula to achieve a creamier consistency if desired.  If you are preparing this dish for a baby over 12 months, you can thin the puree with organic whole milk as well.

Black Beans with Corn and Zucchini

Ingredients:

1/2 can of pre-cooked organic black beans - drained and rinsed under cold running water (look for companies that have BPA-free cans. We like the Eden Organic brand)
1 large organic zucchini —- washed and chopped. (Zucchini have tender, edible skin and seeds, buy organic whenever possible so your baby can eat the nutrient rich skin)
1 cup organic corn (fresh or frozen) — Use organic corn whenever possible as corn is one of the most genetically modified crops in the United States.

Directions:

  1. Pour water into a pot until it is about 1 inch deep and bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Place the corn and zucchini into a steamer basket and put the basket into the pot. Be sure the water does not touch the bottom of the basket. Cover with a tight fitting lid and steam for about 7 minutes.
  3. Put the cooked corn and zucchini into your food processor along with the black beans and pulse until just a little chunky. Make sure the chunks are soft so baby doesn’t choke.
