Preparation Options From 6 Months
Preparation using infant formula:
Prepare 170ml of your chosen infant formula (according to instructions). Pour the prepared formula into a bowl and stir in 18g of porridge (approx. 3-4 tablespoons). Allow to soak and cool to body temperature (approx. 37°C).
Half milk porridge:
Boil 100ml full fat milk and 100ml of water and allow to cool to approx. 50°C. Pour the liquid into a bowl and stir in 25g of porridge (approx. 5 tablespoons). Allow to soak and cool to body temperature (approx. 37°C).
Preparation using breast milk:
Stir 25g of porridge (approx. 5 tablespoons) into 130ml warm breast milk. Please note: in order to preserve valuable nutrients do not heat breast milk over 40°C. Breast milk naturally contains enzymes that liquefy the porridge. This phenomenon does not affect the quality of the meal in any way.
Dairy-free porridge with fruit or vegetables:
Mix 20g of porridge (approx. 4 tablespoons) with 100g fruit-based baby food from a jar or 100g freshly pureed fruit and add 1 teaspoon of edible oil. Add water (approx. 90ml, boiled, 50°C).
