Why should you make your own baby food?
Breastfeeding is recommended exclusively until six months of age and along with solid foods until at least one year of age. Talk with your pediatrician about the best time for your baby to start solids and how to introduce them.
With homemade food, you preserve more of a food’s nutrient value as well as flavor. Making your own food can help expose babies to more flavors, which may help them become more adventurous eaters!
Banana Puree
-
Choose a nice ripe, soft banana.
-
Peel and mash it really well to get all the little chunks out.
-
Then mash it some more for young babies (or use a handheld blender) or leave it a little chunkier for older babies.
