You can introduce dried beans to your baby from 8–9 months, starting with a mashed, pureed consistency. To reduce gas-producing effects, soak beans overnight in water, drain the next morning, replace with fresh water, and cook thoroughly, changing the cooking water as well. After cooking, mash completely — no lumps should remain. On first introduction, give only 1–2 teaspoons, applying the 3-day rule to ensure you're only trying one new food. Be thoughtful about mixing with other legumes and serve alongside easy-to-digest grains like rice to support digestion.
