Annabel Karmel’s Parmesan Sweet Potato Wedges

Got a fussy tot on your hands? Well it’s no secret that children love chips, so it can be a good idea to introduce healthier alternatives early on in their weaning journey. Sweet potatoes have a natural sweetness and baking them in the oven caramelises them, intensifying that sweetness. This finger food recipe from Annabel Karmel is also perfect for those exploring baby-led weaning.
