Onion can generally be added to complementary food starting from 8-9 months. Before this age, it can be used in small cooked amounts in soup or food for flavoring — but for the baby to eat it directly in pieces, 8-9 months is ideal.
Cooked onion makes digestion easier; raw onion is not recommended before 12-18 months. If your baby shows signs of gas or sensitivity, you can wait a while longer and try again.
