Recipes for introducing wheat to your baby. Current guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics is to offer the common allergens early, around 6 months once a few first foods are going well, and to keep offering them regularly. These recipes use wheat in a baby-safe form and show how much is in each serving, so you can introduce it on purpose and keep it in rotation.
Every recipe on Heartful Sprout is checked against USDA nutrition data and tagged by stage, texture, and allergen, so you can match it to where your child is right now. Save favorites, add them to a meal plan in the app, and share the week with your pediatrician or dietitian.
