Get the recipe: Creamy Mango-licious Baby Food Puree
This 5-minute Mango Baby Food Puree is a great way to introduce baby to the magical taste of one of the world's healthiest fruits – MANGOS!
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh or frozen mango, deseed, peeled and roughly chopped. If using frozen mangos, thaw first.
- 1 banana (see notes)
- 1 pinch nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
- Place the mango, banana and nutmeg (if using) into a blender or food processor.
- Puree for 1-2 minutes or until completely smooth. If your mango is not ripe enough, you might need to add in up to a 1/4 cup of water while blending to get the right consistency.
- Serve to baby or freeze for later.

Notes on the Banana: For a first puree, you can leave the banana out of this recipe, but I have found that they give the mangos a creamier and smoother consistency.
Additional Spices: Feel free to also add in a pinch of cinnamon, cloves, mild curry powder, mint, basil or fresh ginger before blending.
Additional Add-Ins: You can also add in a handful of raspberries, a spoonful of full-fat plain Greek yogurt, a splash of canned coconut milk or even a 1/4 cup of chopped spinach to this recipe for more delicious meal options.
