50g pudding rice
cinnamon
350ml whole milk
½ banana (optional), mashed
Add the rice, pinch of cinnamon and milk to a saucepan
Cover and simmer for 30-40 minutes
Blend to the consistency that you want
If using, add mashed banana (only add the banana to the portion about to be eaten, not to the entire quantity as it will make the puree turn brown)
Tips
This recipe has no added sugar, as all the sweetness comes from the banana. It's also great for baking a big batch and freezing into small portions, before you add the fruit.
Variations
Make a vegan version by swapping the cow's milk for oat or almond milk.
Try combining with a fruity puree to introduce your baby to new flavours.
Try adding slices of soft fruits like banana or strawberry. As your baby grows and starts to explore new textures, add in other fruits, like raisins, blueberries and sliced apple. Just make sure that any round fruits are cut in half before serving to your baby, to reduce the risk of choking.

★★★★★ Rated 5 out of 5 stars.My daughter loved this, and it was so easy to make! I made a big batch and froze it in ice cube trays. I pop a cube out and add different mashed fruits each day for breakfast. Great recipe

★★★★★ Rated 5 out of 5 stars.My son loves this. I add a small tin of peaches (in juice, not syrup, drained). I add for the last 15-20 minutes, then blend. I freeze it in little tubs & defrost as required. I'd happily eat it myself.
