Pumpkin Risotto for Toddlers

Baby eating pumpkin risotto with two children excitedly watching.

The thing I love about this Pumpkin Risotto for Toddlers dish is you don’t have to slave over a hot stove, in fact you aren’t anywhere near the stove, because you use the oven. lol

But yeah, it is sooo simple.

This isn’t a puree recipe, if you do puree, it will be so gluey and gluggy I doubt your angel will eat it, so save it for the over 9 month-ers.
