Banana Yogurt Bowl
Nothing is cooked here — ripe banana is simply mashed into full-fat plain yogurt until the two become one soft, spoonable bowl, thick enough to sit on a spoon.

Ingredients
Instructions
- 1Peel ½ ripe banana and mash it on a plate with a fork until it is a smooth, even paste.
- 2Spoon ¼ cup plain full-fat yogurt into a bowl, choosing one with no added sugar or sweeteners on the label.
- 3Fold the banana through the yogurt with a spoon rather than whisking, so the bowl stays thick, and press out any firm ribbons of banana against the side.
- 4Serve cool or at room temperature, staying with your baby while they eat.
Tip. Mixing it just before serving keeps the banana from darkening the yogurt.
Texture by age
6–8 months
Blend or mash very smooth when appropriate for your baby's feeding abilities.
8–10 months
Many babies may be ready for slightly more texture as their skills develop.
10–12 months
Serve thicker or try a preloaded spoon when developmentally appropriate.
A quick safety note
Always supervise your baby while eating and serve food in a texture and shape appropriate for their developmental abilities.
