PORRIDGE/CEREAL PREPRATION SUGGESTIONS:

Using First Infant Milk Formula (Stage Pre or Stage 1)
Prepare 170 ml of your infant milk formula (according to its instructions). 
Pour the prepared formula into a bowl and stir in 18 g of cereal (3 to 4 tablespoons). 
Sit and allow to cool to 37°C / 98.6°F.

Using Follow-on Infant Milk Formula
Boil 150 ml water and allow to cool to approximately 50°C / 122°F.
Add 5 scoops of Holle Stage 2 formula powder.
Then stir in 18g of porridge (3 to 4 tablespoons).
Starting in month 10, use Holle Stage 3 formula powder instead of Stage 2.

Dairy-Free Porridge
Boil 200 ml of water and then cool to 50°C / 122°F. 
Pour the liquid into a bowl and stir in 25 g of porridge (5 tablespoons) .
Add 1 teaspoon of edible oil (such as canola, sunflower, hemp, or olive oil)
Stir until desired consistency is achieved, allowing to cool to 37°C / 98.6°F before serving.

Dairy-Free Porridge with Fruit or Vegetable Purée
Mix 20 g of cereal (4 tablespoons) with 100 g of fruit purée from a jar (or from one of our Holle purée squeeze pouches) or 100 g of freshly prepared fruit purée. 
Add 1 teaspoon of edible oil (such as canola, sunflower, hemp, or olive oil).
Boil water and then cool to 50°C / 122°F.  
Add this water to the mixture to achieve desired consistency (we recommend 90 ml of water). As an alternative to the fruit purée, one teaspoon of oil and water, you may instead use 160 g of warm vegetable-based baby food from a jar and 2 teaspoons of the edible oil of your choice.
