I would highly recommend buying a hand/stick blender for making onetime or bulk meals for babies ( and I would say this is a must have for every kitchen as it can be very handy for grinding soups, purees, instant drinks, curry pastes and more:)

You can also use a mini-pressure cooker to cook small amount of baby foods in less amount of time. It just takes 10-15 minutes to cook them to a super soft texture.
(Please read the instructions carefully before using). I have added some of the best pressure cookers in the market below. (These sizes are ideal for making small amount of baby foods. You can also get bigger sizes on the respective product links)

If you are using pressure cooker for the first time, here are some useful tips for you
1) Use according to the manual that comes with these cookers
2) Never fill above the mentioned mark
3) Always cook on low heat. (For some models with weight/whistler : Once the pressure rises, place the weight/whistler, reduce the heat to very low and cook for the desired time)
4) With some models, the weight/whistler can release steam on some point of cooking which can startle or annoy your babies and pets:)
5) Never try to open the lid soon after cooking. Let the pressure settle on its own (this can take from 20 -30 mts) and then open carefully.

Good luck with your pressure cooker:)
