Slow cooker recipe with honey in - 11 month old

Arghh I’ve just chucked the slow cooker on for tonight’s tea and have only just thought about the fact there’s honey in it.
DS2 is almost 11 months, there’s only a tablespoon in the whole dish (would serve 4 adults) and it’s going to be soo cooked for 7 hours.
Ok to give to ds or not?

It will be fine.

Is it a processed honey like Rowse or one from a small scale local producer? I was told supermarket honey is fine, it’s vanishingly rare for anyone to get ill from pasteurised honey.

Once heated it’s totally fine, maybe worth a quick blast at a high heat at the end to make sure.

Normal thorough cooking (pasteurisation: 70°C 2min or equivalent) will kill Cl.botulinum bacteria but not its spores. To kill the spores of Cl.botulinum a sterilisation process equivalent to 121°C for 3 min is required. The botulinum toxin itself is inactivated (denatured) rapidly at temperatures greater than 80°C
