Avocado, Banana and Cinnamon Purée
Avocado, banana and cinnamon purée is a silky first food for babies, blending ripe avocado and sweet banana with a hint of cinnamon.

Ideal for weaning stages and fuss-free spoon feeding.
About this recipe
Avocado, Banana and Cinnamon Purée in the Thermomix TM7 is one of the simplest baby food recipes you can make with an all-in-one kitchen machine. Ripe avocado delivers healthy fats and a buttery base, banana adds natural sweetness without any added sugar, and a tiny pinch of cinnamon introduces your baby to gentle new aromas. What makes this purée work so well in the TM7 is control: the integrated scale weighs each fruit to the gram for consistent small batches, the blades turn soft avocado and banana into a completely lump-free, spoonable texture in seconds, and you can thin it with breast milk until it flows exactly as your baby needs. This is ideal first food for weaning, a quick breakfast option for little ones, and a snack you can prepare fresh in moments. Because everything happens in one bowl, there is minimal washing up, which every sleep-deprived parent appreciates on busy mornings.
Preparation tips
- Choose a ripe avocado that yields slightly to gentle pressure; an underripe one will not blend into a silky purée and may leave small fibres that babies struggle to swallow.
- Add the breast milk gradually while blending until the purée drips slowly from the spoon, giving you full control over the thickness for each weaning stage, from first tastes to thicker textures.
- Cinnamon should be no more than a small pinch for baby portions; if your little one refuses the spice the first time, simply leave it out and reintroduce it a few weeks later.
- Store any leftover purée with a squeeze of extra banana pressed on top and an airtight lid in the fridge, and use within a day, as avocado browns quickly once cut.
Recipe variations
- Dairy-free version: replace the breast milk with cooled boiled water, infant formula or unsweetened almond breeze suitable for babies, keeping the same silky avocado and banana base with cinnamon.
- Autumn variation: swap half the banana for steamed and cooled pear or roasted butternut squash, giving the purée a seasonal sweetness that pairs beautifully with the cinnamon.
