I made all four of these recipes this week. Thank you so much! I’m going back to work in a few weeks so it makes me so relieved that I’ll have a freezer full of easy and healthy meals. My 9 month old son especially loves the salmon cakes! My husband ate several too and sprinkled salt on the top.
So sorry for the late reply! Yes, of course. I try to get the least processed kind for smaller babies but long as they aren’t allergic to pb, use whatever you like :)
Can’t wait to try all these recipes, especially the oat and banana nut butter pancakes looks yum. Wondering if the broccoli and cauliflower nuggets (?) can be air fried instead of baked
Yay! And yes, they totally can. I never tried to air-fry them though so maybe try on 360 for 6 min and see if that’s enough? Bc I wouldn’t want it crispy or crunchy for a baby
Ya! I never even considered making them because I thought it'd be too time consuming. We're first time parents to twins but these look so doable!! I've been buying pancakes but now I'm tempted to make the ones from your video!! Please never stop sharing recipes!
@@caseycharette you have your hands full! Thanks girl! I stopped like a year and a half ago because I just truly never have time with work and 2 kids. But I need to get back into it 🙈. I hope the babies like them ☺️
AWESOME IDEAS!!! This is going to help me out so much. It will be nice knowing when I get home from work that dinner time will be quick and easy to get ready for baby…well some what quick and easy hahaha! 😅 Thank you for sharing!🥰
Hey! I’ve done so much digging and research on warming up food in the microwave and didn’t find anything too harmful to be honest. I let them thaw first them warm them up for 5-10 seconds in the microwave and make sure they’re not too hot. You can also just warm them on the pan really quick :)
Thank you so much for your response😊🙏 i just made the two first recipe and putting the rest to freezer they're so good😋and honestly you made my day!😇😍i call them my life saver when i have no time to prepare food for my baby or don't know what to prepare😌😌😌
Thank u so much for ur video! I would only suggest not using microwave as it emits radiation. I would rather let them thaw then heat them in a pan or oven for a few minutes
The panko breadcrumbs I use have 0 sugar in them but a little salt. I think what you give your baby is up to you as a parent though as everyone has a different opinion on these things. Even two of our pediatricians had differing opinions.
Hi! Thanks so much! Are you looking for something dairy free or? Maybe try egg whites or Greek yogurt? I’ve always used cottage cheese bc of the protein in it :)
So I cook mine in the oven. I bake it at 400 degrees for 20-25 min depending how big the fil a is. You can also air fry it or even pan cook with a little olive oil. Or just buy the salmon punches ☺️ And so sorry for the late reply!
Hi! We started with purées at 4.5 months and finger foods around 6 months I think. He already had 3 teeth so we sort of took it slow with mushy foods and moved on from there
@@erindean8457 can you wait until they soften? Usually anything crispy will soften up a bit if you wait. Only because I am not sure what stage of eating your baby is and just to be on the safe side you know
Our pediatrician said soon as I start baby led weaning which was around 5ish months. I waited until 6 months though bc my baby already had 4 teeth by then
Is it okay to use this pancake recipe to introduce peanut butter? We are a little late on the peanut butter intro so he is 11 mo. He already has had everything else introduced separately so if he has a reaction I know it's due to the peanut butter in the pancake. What is your concern in regards to omitting PB if it hasn't been introduced?
So honestly what I would do first is put a tiny bit of peanut butter on a spoon or your finger and let him try first. Wait 15 min and see how he does. That’s what my pediatrician told me to do when first introducing it and we had kids Benadryl just in case. She said giving them just peanut butter without anything else in a tiny quantity was a better way to introduce it. But if you want to make the pancakes without peanut butter, totally don’t add it.
I thought one of the advantages of blw was exploring texture. These would be great for a tot who already had texture issues though. Not being a jack ass btw
@@wskong I would do maybe one teaspoon but honestly I never tried with flour before. If you have homemade bread you can use a little bit of that as a binder or even oats. I’m worried the flour may not taste good for baby 🙈
Heyy i’ve honestly never tried to air fry it. You can try it on a low temp so it doesn’t get crispy bc you want the baby food to be softer at this point. Sorry I can’t be of more help
@@SarasBites Thank you for your reply, Sara! Today, I made a broccoli snack, and it turned out great. I gave her a piece to try-she’s 9 months old now and learning the baby-led weaning process. I’m so happy!
@@SarasBites how did you do it? Mine had none at 10 months:/ I ran out of breastmilk at 2.5 months due to an illness and wasn’t able to get my supply….
@@gabim3093 oh I totally feel ya with running out of supply. With my first I ran out 5 weeks and he never latched. Second baby I definitely tried a ton of different ways to increase supply and pumped for 4 months. But the teething part is super hard. I truly don’t think anything helps them until those teeth just pop out. :/
@@SarasBites thank you for that and I’m sorry for your experience ❤️🩷 it’s my first time watching this channel and it’s nice to know that it’s a positive one

Yay! So glad to hear that! Hope going back to work goes well for you ☺️. My baby is 6 months old now so I’ll be making these for her as well
How did you reheat the food?
I’m a father of a 9 months little girl, thanks for the recipes and cheers from Brasil
Congrats on your little girl! Hope she loves them ☺️
These are great ideas! I cannot wait to give these a try. I love that you can prepare them ahead of time too!
Hope your kiddo likes them as much as mine did ☺️
Wow these recipes look amazing!
Perfect texture for the pancakes. Will try out the other recipes as well. Thanks Sara ❤
Thanks for these recipes! But how do I serve it after freezing? How should I reheat it?
I used to just warm them up on a pan and make sure they aren’t hot before giving to my son :)
Awesome recipes to store in refrigerator.. thanks for sharing 🙏
My pleasure!
Thanks for the recipe. I needed something that is ok to be frozen. At least he will still be eating home made food 😊
My pleasure! I was the same way when my baby was smaller. Now he’s 18 months and eats everything in sight 😂
My baby boy loves these! 💙
Hello thanks for the amazing recipe. Question, is it ok to use regular peanut butter like skippy? Or shall I use organic PB?
So sorry for the late reply! Yes, of course. I try to get the least processed kind for smaller babies but long as they aren’t allergic to pb, use whatever you like :)
It's looking yummy
Thank you!

Been buying the veggie nuggets and they're like $8 a tiny box so I'm so so glad to find this video! Loving the easy recipes!!!
Oh yes girl those are expensive! With my second baby I haven’t had as much time to cook everything from scratch so sometimes I buy those too 🙈

Great ideas. I wish I saw this when my babies were just starting to eat :)
Aww thank you! How old are your kiddos? I’m just experimenting with different foods with my baby :)
Amazing
@@AhmedSamir-lb3up thank you!

Thank you for sharing!🥰
Haha you’re welcome! It definitely helps to prep stuff ahead of time. My baby totally lived off those pancakes and broccoli bites 😂
What is your baby’s favorite finger food? Owen loves the pancakes but he also has a zucchini fritter I make often that he gobbles up 😊
Used cauliflower rice for easier mashing 👍🏽❤️
Awesome :)
I probably would enjoy the brocoli bars myself
Haha I actually try everything before I give it to my baby and they are pretty good
Thanks a lot 💓
My pleasure ☺️
Hi thank you for this very helpful tips 😍 just wondering how do you warm them up? Is it healthy to do it in microwave?

@@arenacia I’m so glad to hear that 😊
If we’re heating them up in the oven, how long should we do?
Thank you for these recipes! Made cauliflower bites today and my 10 month old loves them! ❤
Yay!! So glad to hear! I’ll be making them again for new baby coming soon ☺️
@@SarasBites Congrats on your new addition 🤗!
@@CocoSoh thank you! And you as well :)
Incredible recipes. Yummy! Nicely done. Superb editing! Like the chopping board. Cool
Thank you so much 😊
Great video! Did you mean to say oven and not microwave for the broccoli bites? Thank you :)
Yes I’m sorry! I don’t know how to edit that part in an already existing video 🙈. Definitely oven lol
@@SarasBites I had the same question haha thanks for replying :)
@@jessicajohnson2241 sorry 🙈🙈
Thanks for the recipes 🙏🏼🙌🏼 just worried about using frozen brócoli and froze it again after is it safe?
Oh definitely! I even ran it by our pediatrician. Just make sure you freeze them safely so they don’t thaw and get frozen again :)
Thank you so much for the quick answer 😘
@@lolitalala32lila17 of course 💜
Van u freeze them after u baked them?
So sorry for the late reply! You definitely can
Are the breadcrumbs without sugar/salt in them? Curious bcz we can’t give salt/sugar before 12 months right?
The panko breadcrumbs I use have 0 sugar in them but a little salt. I think what you give your baby is up to you as a parent though as everyone has a different opinion on these things. Even two of our pediatricians had differing opinions.
Hello! Thank you for these recipes! They're all amazing! What can you substitute cottage cheese with for cauliflower bites??
Hi! Thanks so much! Are you looking for something dairy free or? Maybe try egg whites or Greek yogurt? I’ve always used cottage cheese bc of the protein in it :)
@@SarasBites I don't have cottage cheese in hand😅 How about ricotta cheese!? Will that alter the consistency of the bites? Thanks💕
@@shinnix87 ricotta works! I think it’s a bit more on the fattening side but it should still bind the cauliflower bites :)
@@SarasBites will try with Ricitta cheese and let you know how it turns out! Thanks Sara :)
@@shinnix87 yes please! Let me know how they turn out 😊
Hi, how do you cook the salmon, boil?
So I cook mine in the oven. I bake it at 400 degrees for 20-25 min depending how big the fil a is. You can also air fry it or even pan cook with a little olive oil. Or just buy the salmon punches ☺️
And so sorry for the late reply!
Not sure if someone has commented on this before, but my little one is allgergic to eggs. Any idea what I can use as a substitute?
Oh no! Sorry to hear that. You can try using applesauce as a substitute. 1/4 cup per egg :)
How many days can we freeze the pancake? Thanks. By the way your recipes were amazing. New subscriber here.☺️
Hi! Thanks so much! You can freeze them up to 3 months but my baby ate them by then lol ☺️
For the Broccoli bites, can we just fry them in a pan? Maybe with a bit of Olive oil since I don’t have a oven…?!
Definitely! I’ve done it that way too :)
Hi, do you have alternative for eggless option? My daughter has egg allergy. Thank you ❤
Hi! I truly don’t but I’m currently testing out more recipes for my baby due soon so I’ll think of some eggless ones and let you know ☺️
Is it the microwave or the oven for the broccoli bites ?
Do you mean to warm them up?
Hi Sarah,
How old is your baby when given this finger foods?
Hi! We started with purées at 4.5 months and finger foods around 6 months I think. He already had 3 teeth so we sort of took it slow with mushy foods and moved on from there
@@SarasBites oh great! My little one doesn't have any teeth yet at 8 months old so maybe ill wait a little bit?
@@raphaeldomingomariano4135 yeah you can definitely wait! Our pediatrician gave us the go for purées before he had teeth so maybe ask your ped :)
I cooked mine a little to much-can my baby still have them if they are a little crispy on top?
@@erindean8457 can you wait until they soften? Usually anything crispy will soften up a bit if you wait. Only because I am not sure what stage of eating your baby is and just to be on the safe side you know
How would you reheat these?
Easiest way for me was to put on a pan on low heat bc not like we have to heat it up a lot anyway for a baby :)
any substitute for the egg?
For sure! With my baby girl I use applesauce instead bc she gets red blotches on her face when she’s tried eggs. 1/4 applesauce per egg :)
How do you reheat once they are defrosted please?
I put them in the microwave for 5-10 seconds or on the pan really quick. Not longer bc of hot pockets :)
How do you recommend reheating them?
I usually did on a pan then let them cool off a little before serving. Can also use the microwave (but be careful with hot pockets) or a toaster
Hello! Do you do it on medium heat? How many minutes should I leave it on for it to fully heat throughout?
From what age babies can have Broccoli bites please?
Our pediatrician said soon as I start baby led weaning which was around 5ish months. I waited until 6 months though bc my baby already had 4 teeth by then
Yummmmmy;love Grandpa😘😘😘

Or can we put them in a air fryer to make the Broccoli bites?
I have honestly never tried them in the air fryer bc I was afraid if they got crispy my baby wouldn’t be able to eat them (may scratch their gums too)
What could I sub for dairy if dairy free
So sorry for the late reply! I'm making some of these recipes again for current baby and using oat milk
I thought one of the advantages of blw was exploring texture. These would be great for a tot who already had texture issues though. Not being a jack ass btw
Can I use flour instead of breadcrumbs?
Yes absolutely!
Do I just add enough flour to make those ingredients stick together?😊
@@wskong I would do maybe one teaspoon but honestly I never tried with flour before. If you have homemade bread you can use a little bit of that as a binder or even oats. I’m worried the flour may not taste good for baby 🙈
@@SarasBites may be I try with oat but not sure if it will turn out dry and hard
Adding the cheese and powder garlic seems a bit unhealthy can this be substituted with something else
Not unhealthy in my book so I guess substitute with whatever you find as healthy 🤷🏻♀️
Les ingrédients s'il vous plaît je comprends pas l'anglais
hey can i airfry them plz share airfryer time and temperature
Heyy i’ve honestly never tried to air fry it. You can try it on a low temp so it doesn’t get crispy bc you want the baby food to be softer at this point. Sorry I can’t be of more help
Can you list the ingredients
If you click “more” in the description, they’re all there.
Is it safe to introduce cheese to babies, considering its sodium content?
@@SuchithraSreehari my pediatrician said yes, in small quantities. So I’d ask your doc :)
@@SarasBites Thank you for your reply, Sara! Today, I made a broccoli snack, and it turned out great. I gave her a piece to try-she’s 9 months old now and learning the baby-led weaning process. I’m so happy!
One more doubt : if I want to give her some tomorrow, can I reheat it in the oven?
@ aw yay! I’m glad she’s liking it. I miss those days when they’re still babies 🥺. Definitely enjoy it because they grow so fast!
@ yes for sure. That’s what I did or on the skillet.
Does he have teeth?
Yeah he had 8 here 🙈. Both my kids for their teeth super early

Cracks me up using organic cheese and then using Panko and broccoli from a plastic bag????? Panko has NASTYS galore!!!
The mom shaming oh my!
