"Formula" baby food for ARFID age regressors 🍼🥤
I'll make a better post with progress pics next time I make some, but I wanted to post about it quickly, since it was such a success.
My small (@bunnnybcy ) has ARFID, which makes it very difficult for him to get much nutrition, and I'm always trying things to make health accessible to him. One way to make "scary" foods accessible is to make them cute or baby-like. This recipe is sort of a "base model," a warm and sweet treat that can be altered later to increase their fruit & whole grain consumption.
Equipment you'll need:
Saucepan
Stirrer
Measuring cups
Stove or hotpad
Blender
Sippy cup or reusable pouches (Link to reusable pouch example)
Refrigerator for storage
Sweet Cinnamon Formula Recipe 😋
Ingredients:
1 cup + 1 cup milk or plant milk of choice (we used vanilla soy milk) 🥛
1/2 cup plain rolled oats 🥣
1 tsp dark brown sugar, or to taste*
1 tsp honey, or to taste 🍯
Cinnamon, to taste
Vanilla extract, to taste
Steps:
🥛 Heat the first cup of milk in your saucepan on the stove. Turn the heat up to medium, or medium-high if you're impatient.
🍯 Stir in the brown sugar and honey, and continue to stir frequently until the milk starts to lightly boil.
🥣 Stir in the 1/2 cup of rolled oats, and turn down the heat to medium, if it isn't already there.
🥄 Stir frequently until the liquid is mostly absorbed, about 5-8 minutes. (The longer you cook it, the smoother your end product will be, which is important for ARFID smalls.)
🆒️ Take off the heat, and let cool for a bit, until you're confident that it won't melt your blender lol.
Pour the oatmeal into your blender, add 1/4 cup milk🥛, and blend until smooth. Check the consistency, and continue adding milk in 1/4 cup amounts until your small approves of the texture. This would also be a convenient time to add more cinnamon, vanilla, honey🍯, or sugar, if they feel the taste is lacking.
Pour into pouches or sippy cups.
You can store leftover formula in the fridge for 3-5 days.
Other formula flavor ideas:
Strawberry 🍓
Banana🍌
Blueberry 🫐
Peach 🍑
Chocolate 🍫
Peanut butter 🥜
Apple pie 🍎
Pumpkin pie 🥧
Sweet potato 🍠
Notes for other carers of little ones with ARFID:
If your small one will tolerate it, adding nuts or seeds during step 1 will yield a more nutritious result, but some may not blend down. Chia seeds, for example, will remain visible and will feel like poppyseeds, which may be off-putting to someone with ARFID, even though they don't taste like anything.
Always remember to introduce new tastes and textures slowly, and allow them to try a new thing multiple times on different days if they're unsure about it. Unsure may just mean unfamiliar, and it'll take them a number of attempts to acquire a taste for it. Uncertainty is a good sign of a future "yes", but don't push them to finish a serving of something they're on the fence about; the pressure may turn it into a "no". Instead, give them the option of putting the rest away for later, and after some time, when they're ready, encourage them to try it again.

Lunch time
Itty bitty baby meal!
Ive been wanting to buy this ikea plate set for years and the other day my parent bought them!
I'm so happy they're so fun and colorful! It came with plates, bowls, and utensils
Still sad I don't have a sippy cup but I'm finally building up a set of agere gear!
Sadly spring break is over for me so I have to go back to school
I may not be able to complete art commission as quickly since I can't really draw during class but please continue to submit them and I will do my best!

"Pumpkin pie" baby food for my ARFID age regressor -- no blender needed 🥧🍠🎃
Equipment:
Knife 🔪
Cutting board
Microwave-safe dish
Plastic wrap
Microwave
Potato masher
Optional: vegetable peeler
Ingredients:
1 large (or 2 small) sweet potato 🍠
2 Tablespoons butter 🧈
Vanilla soy milk, or milk of choice 🥛
Cinnamon
"Pie spice" spice mix (or whatever you have & enjoy of the following: cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, clove*, mace, star anise) .... (*if using clove, only use a very tiny amount. It's strong!)
Vanilla extract
Honey 🍯
Step 1: peel sweet potato(es), and cut into small chunks. Place into microwave-safe container.
(My cuts were uneven because I was trying out a new knife-holding method recommended by Julia Child, and because it doesn't really matter for this recipe.)
Step 2: Add a little water to the dish, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave until fork-tender*. (For me, this was 8 minutes, with a break to stir in the middle. Smaller cuts will need less time.)
*("Fork-tender" means you can easily pierce the chunks with a fork.)
Step 3: Add butter 🧈, milk 🥛, honey 🍯, and spices, and mash together with the potato masher. Keep adding and stirring until you've achieved a taste and texture that your small one enjoys.
(I forgot to take a photo until 2/3 pouches were filled. Oops).
Step 4: Load into pouches or other serving-sized containers. Bonus points for marking the date and contents (I used dry-erase markers)
These pouches hold a maximum of 7oz, and I filled 3 of them, so I guess this recipe makes roughly 21 oz. (There was some that didn't fit, so it's probably more like 24oz).
