Keep an eye on

Do NOT buy a product without reading the label
Do not cut too large: choking hazard
Do not give whole peas to under 24 months (mash well)
Do not leave fig stems
Do not add salt: baby's immature kidneys
⚠️ NEVER serve a product that may contain hidden mustard

Texture tip

Cut ALL pieces the same size for even cooking
For 12-18 months: thinner pieces (1 cm)
Test cooking with a fork: should be melting-tender
KEEP PACKAGING of sensitive products to prove mustard-free
Check LABELS even for 'obvious' products (e.g. quinoa sometimes processed with mustard derivatives)
Take out 30 min before for better incorporation

Add the peas mashed into a smooth purée
Fold in the second batch of cooked quinoa and diced figs

Adjust the texture (quinoa flour if too sticky)
Shape the mini-pizzas with oiled hands
Place on a tray

3. Cooking (baked)

19 min

Preheat the oven to 180°C fan
Lightly oil a baking sheet
