Recipes for weaning baby using breast milk

Hi - can anyone share recipes/ideas using breast milk for my 6m weaning baby. Doctor has confirmed cows milk allergy and I don't want to use soy infant formula so pumping milk to use in cereals etc. Anyone know if I can use this for things like scrambled egg? and any other ideas?

Thanks

Yes you can use as you would milk-so in porridge, with cereal, to loosen fruit and veg purées etc.

If you use butter for cooking, try coconut oil instead (although I have a feeling butter not allergenic?)

I madelovely breastmilk ice lollies with cannula pod seeds infused in the milk on a very low heat.

Porridge is a bit obvious but I still do it for my older one too if he needs an immunity boost.

If you have a big supply you can let the milk settle in the fridge and use the creamy solid top to mix with purreed fruit for a yogurt style breakfast.

Will think of some more

Totally not what you asked, but since cows milk is ok for cooking and cereal (just not as a drink) from 6 months, we weaned my dairy free child onto fortified oat milk in cooking. Also ment we could all eat the same food. This was with the input of the dietician.

Great- thank you everyone for replying. Wasn't sure if i could use it the same as cows milk when cooking. Love the breast milk lolly ideas. Also hasnt considered oat milk...waiting on dietician but will look at that too! xx
