Baby food recipes for 9 month olds

By nine months most babies are ready for lumpier textures, soft finger foods and more variety in flavour. These recipes step up from purées to mashed and chopped meals that can be adapted from what the rest of the family is eating.

Safety first

Age labels and textures are a guide, not medical advice. Always verify a food is safe for your baby's stage, supervise eating, and watch for choking or allergy risks.
