Hi all, this topic has probably been discussed many times before but I am not finding it after search. can you pls help. My 15 months old baby is not eating fruits at all, unfortunately the only form i know to give is cut into small pieces or crush it or make a juice out of it. this way i am unsucessful in making her eat. can u pls suggest some way so she can eat. I have been giving her biscuits smashed in milk n food smashed after cooking it well. can fruits be given this way flavouring it somehow. pls help. Hetal replied. make pies, make jellies, chop the chunks of fruits, mash with forks or let your 15month old play with it,,offer them mashed with cereals(dry without milk,,let the juices of fruits soak them),,offer home made jams(without sugar or with sugar ! ),offer in form of fillings in between breads or roll in the rotis...15montths old is ready for raw but ripe fruits,,see if she is comfortable with it,,,or offer it boiled with skin !!
make curries with apples, bananna and mango...almost tastes like marlamade..
offer orange/peeld,mashed or grated/finely chopped and make marlamade ! kids love it,,
offer strawberries baked alongwith cake/bread or baked in honey(above 1year only,check for allergies,,or bake it along with sugar syrup or bannanas !,,buy the sweet ones and no need to add sugar/sweetener,,or add brown sugar !! ),,,
all recipes ideas are in neetus' links!!! check em out !!
good luck....
