Annabel Karmel’s Baby Led Weaning Recipe Book: 120 recipes to let your baby take the lead

by Annabel Karmel

Baby-led weaning has never been more popular, yet, as a new parent, you wonder if self-feeding over spoon-fed weaning is the best choice for you and your baby. Now, trusted feeding expert Annabel Karmel has come to the table with her brand new Baby-Led Weaning Recipe Book. Why choose Annabel’s baby-led weaning cookbook? Championing a flexible approach to feeding, this recipe-filled practical guide is designed for those wanting to explore baby-led weaning exclusively, and families looking to introduce baby-led weaning alongside nutrient-rich purees. No ‘one-size-fits-all’ when it comes to weaning and Annabel’s collection of 120 family-friendly recipes, paired with simple tips and advice, equips you with the tools to decide what is best for your baby. An important aspect of weaning is to introduce a wide variety of healthy foods, flavours and textures early on. Additionally, encouraging self-feeding of soft finger foods and family meals undoubtedly encourages good habits from the start. Whilst many families thrive on self-feeding, others find that offering a mix of both works best for their baby. The reality is, you don’t have to commit to one method. This new book shows you how to incorporate baby-led weaning into the family routine, whether you adopt self-feeding exclusively or combine with spoon-feeding. This new Baby-Led Weaning Recipe Book is the ideal companion to Annabel's New Complete Baby & Toddler Meal Planner which is filled with failsafe purees.

The recipes in this cookbook are fine, but my main complaint is the the "baby-led weaning" label is not accurate. The majority of recipes contain ingredients that are not approved for babies under a year old, and for the most part they would only be suitable for toddlers and up. The main reason I've reached for baby-led weaning cookbooks is to learn how to make complete meals that are suitable for my now 10-month-old babe; once she is able to eat sugar, and salt, and corn, and the like, I'm not going to want a "baby-led weaning" cookbook, I'm just going to make her what we're having.

Recipe book

Thought there’d be more info on weaning but this was more a book of fab recipes that are good for baby, but also family meals.
