Sugar Free Custard for Baby – Little Big H

Making custard at home is a really great option. You can be guaranteed that it is sugar-free and free of all other nasties – something I am very particular about when feeding my son.

This is an easy custard recipe and baby will love it. Stir though a little pureed fruit for a natural sweeter or simply enjoy as is. For older children or for babies 12 months plus, you could add a little maple syrup to sweeten.

This custard is suitable for babies 4 months plus – just be sure to try the ingredients individually beforehand to be sure of no allergies.
