Chickpea Baby Cookies
Dairy free, Gluten Free, Nut free, Protein rich, Soy free, Vegetarian
About the recipe
Let’s just say this upfront: these cookies don’t taste amazing and that’s kind of the point! They’re not designed for you, but they’re perfect for little ones who are learning to chew, need a satisfying snack, or just need something in their hands so you can finally drink your tea while it’s hot.
Made with just four ingredients, these chickpea cookies are gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, and contain no added sugar, making them a great savoury option when so many baby snacks lean sweet. They’re soft enough for new eaters but firm enough to handle and they come together in minutes.

Around 8 months+, when your baby has established solids and is able to manage more textured, handheld foods. Ideal for babies who are teething or practising self-feeding. Always serve with supervision.
