Baby-Led Weaning Recipes for Android
Put off buying this for ages (follow them on fb) and finally bought in prep for my 1 year old starting at a childminder soon and needing a packed lunch. So pleased with it, already made a few things that are great and my little girl loved them too. The only change I would like is more savory recipes in snacks and breakfasts.
I'm quite confident in the kitchen and like to cook from scratch, but the Baby-Led Weaning app gives me a whole new area of recipes to try and ensures we keep our menu varied and diverse. I find the recipes easy to follow, with ingredients you're already likely to have (or very easy to get hold of!) and the instructions easy to follow. It's not just my little girl who loves the recipes, but all of the family! Really great app for those looking to do Baby-Led Weaning or needing some more ideas of tasty dishes to make their little one.
For a strapped for time, family of five, cooking can sometimes be a little traumatic. I've been losing the will to live when working those long late shifts! I love cooking usually and especially for our toddler so this app has given me a new lease of excitement for cooking. Plus it is easy to use, straight forward and the recipes are delish ❤
This app has been so helpful. I find the recipes easy to follow and there is a great variety. Have seen reviews saying it is too expensive but how much would you pay for a recipe book which will never be updated? Defo well worth spending a few pound.
This app is amazing. Literally every time I cook for my 7 month old, I use this. Wouldn't recommend anything else, have told all of my mummy friends to use it too. Fantastic recipes, easy to follow and tasty to eat for the whole family
I have been using this app since my son was 7 months old after starting on purees at 6 months (he's now 14 months) he is quite fussy but I have been making my way through the app and he has some definite favourites. I absolutely love baking and cooking different things for him and this app has given me loads of inspiration. I love that the recipes are so quick, easy, healthy and adaptable. My son has a slight egg allergy so I often substitute the egg with yogurt or bananas and they have still tasted great. I am now saving my play credits for the fussy toddler app and can't wait to start trying those recipes for my fussy toddler. Thanks Natalie, I also love following your page :)
Lots of great ideas for when baby gets past the 'veggie sticks and fruit' phase. Lots of savoury muffins and snack ideas plus interesting meals that us adults can enjoy too. Lots of the sweet recipes use maple syrup or sweetener but I wouldn't give these to my son until he's a little older.
I use this app alot and really love all the recipes I've tried. The app updates with new recipes are free once you have the app which is great. There's also a great support group connected to the app where either Natalie or one of her helpers will answer questions and queries. My daughter is now an amazing eater of a great variety of foods which is in part thanks to Natalie's lovely recipe ideas.
Great app for anyone with kids. Lots of simple and tasty recipes to try. Only just starting with my 6month old but my older daughter is looking and me and hubby too. I try never cook seperate meals and this has given me lots of new ideas to try.
This App is wonderful! It has made weaning and meal times so much easier in our house. I have a very clingy little boy who allows me a total of 15mins to prep any sort of food and these recipes are so quick and delicious! Thank you so much for all your hard work and effort! Xx
Was getting a little stuck in a rut with ideas for snacks, lunch and dinner for my 1yr and 3yr old. This app gave me a new lease of life! Thanks!
This app has absolutely changed weaning for us. I was completely lost for ideas. Now we're all eating better and together round the table. Even friends without kids are pinching some recipes!
Have been using this App since my daughter started weaning and I can't rate it highly enough. It has supported me greatly as a first time Mum with BLW and the support on the Facebook page is excellent. I really didn't think my daughter would have such a wide range of tastes at this age but due to the recipes provided (Korma is a fave!) I haven't been scared to push the boundaries on flavour. I have also purchased the Slow Cooker and Toddler apps too which are great! Thanks so much! You've made weaning so easy and I love following your journey.
Great recipes and inspiration! Whilst we often give baby low salt versions of what we eat, I particularly like many of the ideas for lunches and other meals when we may be having something particularly naughty and unsuitable for him. Loads of great stuff for batch cooking too.
This is an absolutely fab app, my little girl is eating better than we do! Currently eating the scotch pancakes as we speak
This app saved the day in my house as we were struggling with weaning my youngest, but since using the app my 9 month old little boy has started to eat more and more. The best bit is that the recipes are suitable for the whole family and my toddler is enjoying them as well. I love that so many of the recipes are suitable for freezing so I can batch cook and will always have a healthy meal on hand for my children.
I find this app really useful. I love cooking but I struggle with coming up with new things to try, but this is great at bringing new ideas to the table. The recipes are really simple, and easily adapted in many cases. When you come in and don't know what to cook and it's getting late there is always something on here you can find to throw together!!
Brilliant recipes for all the family. The only reason I've marked it as 4 stars is the fact that my favourites keep disappearing with each update which is a bit annoying.
Love it. It's so easy to find something my daughter can eat. She's loved every recipe we've tried and there's room to make changes if your child doesn't like a certain ingredient. There's options in case of allergies and the app owner is friendly and quick to reply to questions. All the work is done for you so you don't have to think about what to cook etc. Helps me be really creative
This app has become my most used app. I bought it because I found the Facebook app support group first, which is also incredibly helpful on the blw journey. My baby loves the food and with the cup measures it makes it very quick to do while you have a baby hanging off your hip. There are freezable recipes which is a lifesaver. The problem is mum and dad also love the recipes so have to hold back!! My little boy wasn't even on the chart before we bought this app and now he's gone up two centiles! It is very easy to adapt the recipes to suit you. I don't use sugar or dairy and everything has worked out well with substitutes. I've told all the mums I know about it. On top of this you are supporting a fellow mum, rather than some big book publisher or brand by investing in this app.
This app is fantastic! Every recipe I have so far tried has been a success with my son. I didn't know where to start at first with blw but after purchasing this app and doing the recipes, not only has my son eating a variety of food but I have become more confident cooking!
Love this app!!! I never had the confidence to cook such different things with my first, she is such a fussy eater my second is such a good eating in comparison, he eats anything and everything! I feel I've got the app to thank for that, it's also made me eat different things I never thought I would!!
Really pleased I downloaded as has given me some great ideas for feeding my baby. The online support is fantastic and I love that you get access to the website too. I am using the app daily for ideas! I have found the recipes a bit hit and miss especially using 'cup' measurements but I understand everything is getting converted into grams/ metric which will be a lot better as I do find with baking it is important to be precise wig the ingredient measurements.

This app is an absolute life saver and so easy. Who wants boring sandwiches when you can do something more exciting in the same time. I cant believe anyone would be negative about it it's fantastic and we love it. Keep up the good work fellow mommy xxx
A fabulous app that saves so much worry about what I can give my little one (especially as someone who didn't really want to use pack food - nothing against packet food!) The recipes are easy to follow and the app is easy to use!
Although a fairly confident cook it's been great app to give ideas and inspiration cooking for a baby and toddler. Recipes have been really easy to make and gone down well. Handy having on my phone, clear lay out and I like the favourites feature.
Let me start with the positives: I love baking therefore the cakes and muffins are great for me as I’ve never used maple syrup in baking before and wouldn’t know where to start with exchanging my usual sugar for the syrup. The savoury recipes I’ve tried have been absolutely delicious and I’ve not missed the salt that I would usually add. The app gets updated regularly with new recipes which is great to keep me interested in what’s coming next. This app really suits people who rarely cook from scratch as the recipes are quick and easy. Even if you do already cook from scratch you can never have too many recipe books in my view. However, the reasons I need to mark it down to 3 stars is as follows: there are several measuring inconsistencies and typos which I feel with an app of this price shouldn’t be present. A few of the recipes are repeated, e.g. drop scones and scotch pancakes & time saving tortilla pizza, veg packed pizza and easy cheesy pizza tortilla. Recipes seem missing e.g mighty meatballs states “this recipe makes 24 meatballs” but there is no recipe for the meatballs, only the accompanying sauce Several recipes are reliant on a slow cooker which I don’t have.
This app is great when I'm short on ideas for my toddler! And if your have any issues the developer will reply personally, that's dedication for you!
I love this app, it has so many great ideas, I especially love the dinners and the various muffin recipes (some healthy, some for when you want a bit of a treat but still keeping the refined sugar to a minimum). Where allergens are used there is usually a helpful suggestion for what to substitute that ingredient for and Natalie is very active on Facebook to answer queries when there isn't. Also have her other two apps, love them all (and so does my little boy!)
Great ideas here, & lovely support on the associated Facebook groups/pages especially if you have a baby with an allergy. Have had to adjust lots of the recipes because of my particular preferences or oven, & have found them quite sugary in general. Luckily the adaptations are easy to make and every recipe I have tried without the sugar element is still delicious!
A very small amount of recipes and you still have to pay for extras such as 'Fussy toddler recipes' which has a link for access in the app. Don't waste your time, plenty of recipes found on google.
Ive started using the app months before my baby could eat. Porridge bites fruit rolls banana pancakes blueberry drop scones all great snacks. He can eat now so have to share!!
Love this app. Only wish I had found it earlier. Lots of quick and easy recipes on there. Big fan of the slow cooker meals on there and the healthy snacks. Highly recommend!
Love love love the app! It's made weaning seem like much less of a minefield and the recipes (especially dinner ones) are perfect for all the family, meaning I'm only having to cook one meal and we are all eating much better than we used to! Recipes are explained really simply and always turn out delicious!
I was actually really worried about weaning my baby, giving her the wrong foods and finding the time to fit it all in. Now I feel empowered to make it ace and me and my daughter are having SO much fun. Recommend!
This app given me lots of ideas for blw and lots more confidence. I am not a great cook but the recipes are beautifully presented and easy to follow. The ones I have made have been really yummy and my 7 month old is doing great with them! Great value for money too with all the updates and support you get on the group. Thank you so much!
I do like this app, there are lots of great recipes and ideas. However, there are far too many things containing peanut butter, I would like to see more variety.
Brilliant app!! I'm a fussy eater so gave me loads of great ideas good things to cook for my LG and she eats really good variety at 22 months. Recommend to anyone xxx
Love this app and related ones. I'm really not a good cook or baker but these are so easy, even I can do it. Cup measuring system great for busy working mums like me.

This app is FAB! I aim to try a new recipe once a week and so far my little boy loves them all! The recipes are so quick and easy they can be made during the shortest of naps! We have a drawer in our freezer full of little snacks just waiting to be eaten! Carrot muffins are our favourite! Lots of recipes to sneak veg in too! I also love the search feature to find recipes quickly. There's a brilliant app support facebook page and a whole community that comes with it to help your BLW journey. A big thumbs up from a tired mummy and hungry 9mo Reggie!
