atiborraba/atracaba (la boca de) la criatura con puré/compota de manzana a una velocidad alarmante.
Por toda la discusión de clarificación, que tiene mucha razón, sugiero esto. En realidad, no se quiere decir que está dando de comer a la cara, sino que se está llenando muchísimo la boca del bebé.
Discussion
Also, stuff one's face. Eat greedily, overeat, as in When Dave comes home he's apt to feed his face, or She won't lose any weight if she keeps stuffing her face like that. [Slang; c. 1900]
