Ingredients
  

  • ½ ripe avocado stone removed, flesh scooped out
  • ½ ripe banana peeled

Equipment

  • Fork and bowl, or a Sana 707, 727 or 929 juicer with homogenising screen

Method
 

  1. Wash your hands. For a thicker texture, mash the avocado and banana together with a fork until mostly smooth with a few soft lumps.
  2. For a smoother mash, feed the avocado and banana through the homogenising screen and stir together.
  3. Serve straight away. Avocado browns quickly, so make this fresh rather than storing it.

Notes

A good step towards the thicker, lumpier textures the NHS suggests offering from around 6 to 7 months.
