Banana and Avocado Baby Mash (No-Cook, 6+ Months)

⏱ 5 min 🍽 Serves 2 📈 easy 🌍 British

A no-cook, two-ingredient mash of ripe banana and creamy avocado — the ultimate speedy baby meal from 6 months, packed with healthy fats for growing brains. Safety note: serve freshly made, check the texture is smooth enough for your baby's stage, and never add honey under 12 months.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Peel the banana and scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl.
  2. Mash together with a fork until smooth and creamy. For younger babies, push through a sieve or blend with a splash of your baby's usual milk for an extra-smooth finish.
  3. Serve straight away — from around 6 months it can also be spread thinly on lightly toasted fingers of bread as a first finger food.

Chef's note: Suitable from 6 months. Use ripe fruit only — it should mash with no lumps. This browns quickly, so make it fresh each time rather than storing. No added sugar or salt, and never honey under 12 months.
