Struggling with my 9 month old not wanting to eat

My 9 month old baby just doesn’t seem interested in eating proper meals. I’ve been offering her different purees like pumpkin, broccoli, carrot, and potato, but she only takes 2-3 bites before shutting her lips tight. I’ve also tried offering her porridge, she doesn’t seem interested too.. Interestingly, when I offer her biscuits, she eats them without a problem. Because of this, I’ve stopped offering her meals recently since it feels like such a waste of time with all the prep and cleanup. Is it okay that I’ve stopped offering her meals for now? Has anyone else experienced this?

Yup. 14 months now on and off have the food strike phase! JUST went thru it againnn. Really reject all food! Will keep mouth shut or will spit out, no matter what texture BUT puff must go on😂 all day everyday puff. So during that phase i just give puff, whatever that he can eat
