waffles

stupid question, but how do you serve waffles to babies? just let them gnaw on the whole thing? cut it up real tiny? butter? syrup? plain?
sorry!!!

 

When we first started I did plain and cut up into small pieces. Now I put a little syrup on them.

 

I serve them plain cut up into small pieces.

 

Cut into small pieces, mainly plain, but one of mine loves the blueberry ones. We do all similar breakfast foods like this (pancakes...)

 

Small pieces...sometimes I add a little butter to make it soft...yum!

 

Do you have a pizza cutter? That's what I've been using for waffles, pancakes, toast, grilled cheese, etc. It's SO easy to cut stuff up with it. But to answer your question, I give my girls their waffles plain, cut up into small squares.

 

I used to cut them up plain..... now whole with a little butter.

 

We serve ours plain and cut them in thin strips/slices. They do have some mini waffles in the frozen section that you can serve whole.

 

I started them with a little butter and syrup and then cut them into small pieces. I still actually do it that way because sometimes they can accidentally take a bite but more of it will come off then they actually bit and it scares me. I personally don't serve much of anything plain. Everything has a bit of seasoning or butter or what have you because that is the reality of food. I have never gone to a restaurant and asked the waitress if I can have an order of plain waffles. YUCK! When I get them the flavored waffles (like the blueberry or strawberry) then I often will put just a little butter because they already have a really nice sweet flavor to them from the fruit.

JMHO but I think people get very caught up in the whole serving everything plain mode. My girlfriend told me she did this with her first daughter and it was a big mistake. She thought she was doing the right thing but her daughter had a hard time adjusting to any food that had flavor. Makes things hard when you go out to eat or to a family or relatives house for dinner, kwim?

 

We break them up into little pieces. They like the whole grain blueberry flavor

 

they split a waffle today with some butter on it and they LOVED it!!!! had to really watch DD because she just kept shoveling it in- she was like a little squirrel and making me nervous! little piggy! DS was better at pacing himsel, thanks for the tips. I may have to get some with blueberry or strawberry next time! thanks!
