Zucchini - carrot fritters made in oven is an afternoon snack or dinner which you have ready within 30 min. You can store them in the fridge.
Use the veggies you have at home, but our favorite combo ist carrot & zucchini &cheese. This makes approx 15 fritters:
1 zucchini
2 carrots
2 eggs
1-2 handfull of shredded Peccorino Cheese
marjoram
Salt (you can leave out if the cheese is salty enough)
flour (oat, spelt) - use so much you get a nice consistence, easy to scoop.
1 tsp Aluminium free baking powder

Place the parchment paper on a baking tray and spread a bit of olive oil on it before you scoop the batter.

Preheat the oven to 175C and bake for approx 25 min.

Once I’ve read - Change the word feed for nourish and you will get an entirely new perspective of feeding your baby.

Choosing easy- to - digest food and food combinations can help your baby’s immune system, digestive system and microbiome to develop well. Offering easy-to digest meals is the way how to avoid putting stress on your baby’s digestive system.

I definitely support the idea of raising an independent eater. I also believe babies are able to explore food on their own.
However, just because they are able to hold, suck on the food, and even process the food without having teeth, this doesn`t mean their digestive system and intestines are ready for any kind of food right from the start. Different foods have a different impact on the digestive system and other organs as well. The food chosen for your baby should be nourishing and should support your baby`s healthy development.

You can offer puree and still support your baby to become an independent eater.
Starting solids with purees also doesn't mean, you have to keep mashing and mixing the food forever. It is necessary to chunkier food with more texture within 1-2 months to avoid your baby refusing the food at a later stage.
