Fine to serve
Suitable at this age with the usual preparation described below.
Offer 30-60 ml (2-4 tbsp) of pea protein yogurt as part of a balanced meal, ideally paired with foods rich in iron and healthy fats, such as avocado, cooked egg yolk, or pureed meats. Ensure the yogurt is unsweetened and free from added sugars. Serve from a spoon or allow self-feeding. Yogurt is not a replacement for breast milk or formula at this age, but works well alongside. Watch for signs of fullness and introduce new foods gradually.
Fine to serve
Suitable at this age with the usual preparation described below.
Offer 60-90 ml (4-6 tbsp), still as part of a meal with iron-rich foods, such as lentil puree, shredded chicken, or nut butters (if introduced safely). Pea protein yogurt is filling but not a substitute for primary milk feeds. Encourage self-feeding with pre-loaded spoons or as a dip for soft fruits or toast. Watch for preferences and avoid products with added sugars or artificial flavors.
Fine to serve
Suitable at this age with the usual preparation described below.
Increase to 90-120 ml (6-8 tbsp) as a snack or meal addition, mixed with cut fruit, oats, or finely ground seeds. Ensure the yogurt remains unsweetened and continue balancing meals with iron and healthy fat sources. Children may enjoy using yogurt as a dip for whole grain crackers or soft, steamed vegetable sticks. Watch for overall appetite and adjust portion sizes as needed.

Gagging is loud and normal. Choking is silent and an emergency. How to tell them apart, what actually causes choking, and when frequent gagging is worth raising with a professional.
