Ingredients

  • 1 mini plain bagel (low-salt)
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese (plain, full-fat)
  • 6 blueberries (halved)

Method

  1. 01

    Choose a small plain mini bagel (low-salt variety). Slice in half horizontally.

  2. 02

    Spread a generous layer of plain full-fat cream cheese on each bagel half.

  3. 03

    Wash blueberries. Halve or quarter each blueberry to reduce choking risk and press gently into the cream cheese.

  4. 04

    Cut each bagel half into 3–4 pieces (small wedges or strips).

  5. 05

    Serve at room temperature. The cream cheese helps blueberries stay in place.

How to offer

Place bagel pieces on the high chair tray. Always supervise during feeding. At 9 months, bagels must be soft enough to mush — toasted bagels are too hard and a choking risk. Always halve blueberries. This is a popular BLW breakfast.

Storage

Best served fresh. Components stored separately — cream cheese 5 days, bagel 2 days at room temperature.
