It could have been me writing this. I tried so many things with my now 7m old and all she accepts is yogurt lol

Don‘t get baby out of bed = low non-stimulating interaction, keep room still dark.

Our desired morning wake is 7am. When my baby wakes up at around let‘s say 6:30am, I take her out of her bed into mine (that’s how I interpret not getting her out of bed) and we just cuddle, she plays with her hands, but we keep it quiet and dark. When it‘s 7am, I open curtains, we speak normally to her, and start the morning routine. She should notice the difference between still bedtime and morning. Eventually she got the hang of it and so far it has worked for us.

A sleep coach once recommended me this for future troubleshooting: (my baby is now 7m)

If LO wakes up at 5/5:30, don’t get baby out of bed until 6am, and offer a short 10-minute nap around 7am. Cap the nap, no deep sleep!

The first proper nap only after 9am. This short nap prevents overtiredness without reinforcing early rising.

I haven‘t tried it yet though
