This Pumpkin and Zucchini Slice is perfect for adults and for kids. I bake this a lot for my 11 month old son and he loves this. It provides him with a good serve of vegetables and protein from the eggs and goats feta. When I bake this recipe I usually pour it into a square slice tin to bake as it’s so much quicker than filling a muffin tray. Once baked and cool I slice it into soldiers which are perfect for little hands to pick up. It also makes for a relatively mess free snack or meal, which is always a bonus! If you do have the time this recipe will work in a muffin tin, simply reduce the baking time to 15 minutes.
This is delicious served with my Fennel, Apple & Red Cabbage Slaw. To make this recipe dairy free leave out the goats feta.
This recipe is suitable for babies from 9 months of age. As long as whole eggs have already been introduced. To read more about introducing allergens to babies, Boob to Food has a great resource here.
