We're doing BLW and I'm making French toast this morning and wondered if LO could have some or if I need to wait?

Should be ok? You can try giving her a small piece and see how she likes it.
My Lo didn't start liking it until she was 14 mos or so

I think the only concern would be the egg white.. I gave my Lo yolk at 6 months and she loved it

I agree that the egg white could be a problem. I'd probably wait to give LO something with that much egg white in it, but we have a family history of food allergies, so I'm pretty sensitive about giving LO high allergen foods. My LO loved plain toast strips at that age, though.

Yes, it should be ok unless you have a family history of food allergies. Have you done eggs yet at all? Just look for a reaction.
Maddox has a gluten allergy and he's fine with eggs. He loves french toast made with GF bread, which he started eating at 6.5m. GL!

I wouldn't/didn't at that age, mostly because of the eggs, but also the bread. I think we started bread around 7.5 or 8 months.

@Mrs. Stroller: I love reading your monthly updates of Maddox. Such a cutie!!
We don't have food allergies in our families, thank goodness!
When you make him French toast, do you avoid adding milk to the eggs? I usually add a little but that's another high allergy food so I didn't know if I should avoid giving it to her until she's older?

Naw, it's so little milk anyway. If I make 4 slices and use maybe 1/4 c of milk then it's just a tablespoon he gets at the most. He hasn't had any negative effects from it, but if you're concerned you can use a splash of breast milk.
