This is a pretty simple recipe that you can spoon-feed to your baby or preload on a self-feeding spoon and hand to your baby, so they can feed themselves.

For this recipe, you can either use just the yolk or the entire egg for a chunkier puree. We start by mashing half of a hard-boiled egg with yogurt to get an appetizing, creamy texture. You can also mash the hard-boiled egg with a few white beans, soft tofu, chicken, or any thick puree you have on hand. If the mixture is too thick, you may need to add a few drops of breast milk, formula, or water.
