Avocado and banana puree

No cooking, ready in two minutes. Good fat from avocado and natural sweetness from banana for a first snack.

Published

A practical first snack for a 6-month-old. Avocado is rich in the unsaturated fat the brain needs; banana adds potassium and a natural sweetness babies enjoy.

Note: this is a snack, not a replacement for a complete meal. Offer it between the two main meals.

Ingredients

  • a quarter of a ripe avocado
  • half a ripe banana
  • 1 to 2 tbsp breast milk or boiled water

Steps

  1. 1

    Scoop the avocado flesh and slice the banana.

  2. 2

    Mash with a fork or blend until smooth.

  3. 3

    Loosen with breast milk if too thick.

  4. 4

    Serve immediately (avocado browns fast).
