Cannellini Beans

Cannellini beans can be introduced from around 6 months, cooked until very soft and mashed. Like other beans they bring iron, protein and fibre, and their soft texture makes them an easy early food.

How to serve at this age

Can be served as a puree or mixed with other vegetables.

Nutrition

Rich in protein, fiber, iron, and B vitamins.

A note from the editors

Soaking beans before cooking can make them easier to digest.

Good to know

Ensure beans are thoroughly cooked and turned into a puree for safer baby consumption.
