How to Serve Flavored Yogurt (Low Sugar) to a 6–9 Months Old

Fine to serve

Suitable at this age with the usual preparation described below.

Serving Instructions

Serve low-sugar flavored yogurt as part of a varied meal, alongside iron-rich foods such as lentils, eggs, or chicken and fruits or veggies for vitamin C. Begin with 1-2 tablespoons (15-30g/0.5-1oz) per meal. Opt for yogurts with less than 5g sugar per 100g and plain or naturally flavored varieties to limit added sugar. Always avoid yogurts with honey for children under 12 months due to botulism risk. Offer from a pre-loaded spoon or allow baby to self-feed using hands.
