6–7 Month MPASI Guide: Family-Friendly Recipes That Are Safe for Babies & Practical for the Family

At 6–7 months, babies begin to learn to eat family meals. Many home-cooked meals can be enjoyed together —as long as they're prepared without salt for baby portions and the texture is adjusted.

With this approach, parents don't have to cook two different versions of a meal, and their little ones can explore a variety of natural flavors from an early age.

This article features easy-to-adapt family recipe ideas , from fritters and patties to one-pot meals—all safe for babies and delicious for adults.

Fritters and patties are a soft finger food option for babies and a practical meal for the whole family.

1. Avocado Banana Pancake

  • Baby: A combination of banana, avocado, egg, and a little organic rice flour makes these pancakes nutrient-dense and full of benefits.
  • Family: can be served with chocolate or maple syrup with fresh whipped cream.

2. Sweet Potato Fritters

  • Baby: Sweet potato, cauliflower, and broccoli. Easy to add with other vegetables like carrots or leeks. The texture is soft and easy to handle.
  • Family: add yogurt sauce or a little salt to your own plate.

3. Nagasari Cake Made from Bananas

  • Baby: This soft cake made from banana and steamed pumpkin (kabocha) filling is perfect as a baby snack because it has no added sugar.
