Whipped Bone Marrow for Babies

WHIPPED BONE MARROW, Jesse's first food! His solids journey has been so fun. This whipped marrow is energy dense, high in fat but PACKED with nutrients, and a really easy first food to give on a spoon. I now add it to Gigi's pasta too, and to Jesse's veggie...

ServesApprox. 1 cupPrep10 minutesCook20 minutesTotal30 minutes + chilling

ingredients

At least 5 large marrow bones, cut in half lengthways (10 halves). More is better!

method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Place the marrow bones cut side up on a lined tray and roast for 15-20 minutes, until the marrow is soft and starting to bubble.
Scoop the marrow out into a bowl and refrigerate until completely COLD.
Once cold, whip with electric beaters until light and fluffy.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.

Leah's notes

Make sure it's COLD to whip. That's my biggest takeaway!

I get my marrow bones from Bowie Meat & Co.

For grown ups, add garlic and salt and it's delicious on toast.

Always check with your child's health professional about starting solids.
