Safety Information
How to Serve Kamut Flakes to a 6–9 Months Old
Serving Instructions
Begin with a small serving of 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 ml; 0.5-1 oz) of smooth Kamut porridge to introduce this new grain. Since Kamut is a wheat product, introduce it in small amounts and watch for any signs of an allergic reaction. To boost nutrient absorption, mix in a purée of vitamin C-rich fruit like peaches or plums. Adding a small amount of healthy fat, like a swirl of coconut oil or a tiny bit of unsalted butter, supports brain development. Offer the porridge on a pre-loaded spoon to encourage self-feeding.

How to Serve Kamut Flakes to a 9–18 Months Old
Serving Instructions
You can increase the serving size to about 1/4 cup (60 ml; 2 oz) of thicker Kamut porridge as your baby's appetite increases. Create a well-rounded meal by stirring in a spoonful of full-fat plain yogurt for protein and probiotics, or some mashed avocado for healthy fats. Mixing in mashed banana or applesauce adds natural sweetness and extra vitamins. The thicker consistency is excellent for babies practicing self-feeding, as it will stick to the spoon more easily, fostering independence and improving their fine motor skills during mealtimes.

How to Serve Kamut Flakes to a 18+ Months Old
Serving Instructions
Serve a portion of 1/4 to 1/2 cup (60-120 ml; 2-4 oz) of cooked Kamut porridge. At this age, you can make it more interesting by adding toppings like chopped soft fruits, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of maple syrup for toddlers over two. Use the flakes as a nutritious binder in meatballs or veggie burgers. To create a balanced meal, pair the Kamut dish with a source of protein and a colorful vegetable. Encourage your toddler to practice their utensil skills by eating the porridge independently with a spoon.

When to Talk to Your Pediatrician
Every child is different, and your pediatrician knows your baby best. If your baby has known allergies, was born prematurely, or has any feeding difficulties, consult your doctor before introducing new foods. If you ever observe signs of an allergic reaction — such as hives, swelling, vomiting, or difficulty breathing — seek emergency medical care immediately.
Important Safety Disclaimer
Every child develops chewing and swallowing skills at their own pace. The preparation methods shown are general guidelines; you must always evaluate your individual child's ability before serving. By offering this food, you agree to the following:
- Choking & Preparation: All foods can pose a choking hazard. You are strictly responsible for modifying food sizes and textures to match your child's skills. Always physically inspect this food for hidden hazards (e.g., bones, pits, seeds, splinters, or tough skins) before serving.
- Food Handling: Ensure all ingredients are properly washed, stored, and cooked to safe internal temperatures to prevent foodborne illness. Never serve raw or undercooked meat, poultry, seafood, or eggs to an infant.
- Allergens: Introduce any new food one at a time. Observe your child closely for signs of an allergic reaction (hives, swelling, vomiting, or difficulty breathing) and seek emergency medical care immediately if symptoms occur.
- Strict Supervision: 100% active, arm's-length adult supervision is required at all times while your child is eating or interacting with food.
