Nut butters are the easiest way, you can mix it with some porridge or puree like avocado or anything really. Studies have shown that giving them nuts earlier can reduce the risk of an allergy developing so good idea to try it soon 😊

I’ve seen people mix a tiny bit of peanut butter w formula or breast milk and then give one bite to baby. Wait 20 minutes and if no sign of reaction give the rest. Monitor.

We added it to toast and yogurt

My daughter is 7 and I’ve just started adding to porridge or any dish which goes with nuts just a bit everyday of another nut 😊

I used the meridian peanut butter as it's 100% peanut and no palm oil etc. Started off mixing like 1/4 teaspoon into his porridge, then increased to 1/2 etc.
