Healthy Gelatin Gummies for Babies | Baby led weaning
Gelatin gummies baby style! These two recipes are perfect for bubbas as they have no sweetener, full of nutrients for brain development and a healthy gut PLUS you can cut them into strips that they can hold easily and suck away on.
They are soft and mushy, perfect for baby led weaning and you can increase the gelatin to make them more firm as baby is ready for it.
These take only a couple minutes to make and store in the fridge for a few days.
What’s good about them:
+ Healthy fats to encourage healthy brain and nervous system development and keep little bellies full.
+ Gelatin seals and protects the gut lining which fortifies the immune system and aids digestion
+ Gelatin provides essential protein and collagen to their little growing bodies
+ Ghee contains a good dose of Vitamin A and D for healthy immune function, plus butyric acid which improves digestion and promotes a healthy microbiome.
You do need to use a good quality, grass-fed gelatin to get the benefits (not the gelatin from the supermarket). I like the nutraorganics range.
