1-year-old allergic baby breakfast?

For an allergic 1-year-old, the key is using foods you've safely fed before without allergic reaction. When introducing a new food, morning is safest and give it alone, then observe throughout the day.

If your baby is allergic to cow's milk, eggs, peanuts, wheat, etc., you can use:

• Milk substitute: If tolerated, almond, oat, or coconut milk (unsweetened, additive-free) works for oat porridge or crepes.
• Protein source: If egg-allergic, well-cooked and pureed chickpeas, lentils, or ground beef (like a breakfast patty) work.
• Carbs and energy: Mashed banana, avocado, sweet potato puree, or sugar-free rice flour-based flatbread.
• Fat: Olive or avocado oil adds energy.

Example breakfast: Thoroughly mash banana, add a tablespoon of nut butter (if no allergy) and a teaspoon of olive oil. Serve with sliced avocado or sugar-free oat porridge on the side.

Since each baby's allergy profile is different, building your list with your pediatric allergist of which foods are safe is the most reliable approach.
