Seitan
Seitan, or 'wheat meat', is a high-protein option made from gluten, suitable for babies once they have been introduced to gluten safely. It provides a chewy texture that is great for babies to gnaw on while exploring textures.

Voedingswaarde
Seitan is an incredible plant-based source of protein, essential for growth and muscle development. It contains iron and selenium, which contribute to healthy blood and cell function. Because it is highly processed, it is best paired with varied whole foods.

Dit voedingsmiddel kan verslikkingsgevaar opleveren voor baby's. Bereid het in een grootte en textuur die bij de leeftijd past, en houd je baby tijdens het eten altijd in de gaten.
Seitan contains wheat and is a common allergen, so monitor for reactions if your baby has a known sensitivity. Ensure it is cooked until tender and chopped appropriately to manage its dense, chewy texture.
