rice pudding!

When I normally make rice pudding I put in a little sugar, would this still be ok to give LO, or would I have to make it without? I know they shouldn't eat sugar directly but if you following BLW they should eat what we eat right?

I don't think a little bit of sugar in a homemade recipe will do any harm! Don't worry about it, iv actually checked the baby jars of rice pudding recently and most of them have added sugar in x

Super! Its only a tiny amount, and its not like he'd eat the whole lots anyway. Thanks a million!

A little bit of sugar won't harm, but when I make rice pudding I use some condensed or evaporated milk as it's sweeter, and add vanilla too.

Ooh that's a good idea - I'll give that a go next time, thank you!

I do add a bit of sweetening to rice pudding - usually agave nectar but a bit of sugar is ok.
