How do I make avocado baby food?

I bought an avocado but have never prepared one before. It was soft to the touch (all around) but not too soft. I peeled it and took the pit out. I used the Baby Bullet to make the baby food. The recipe was vague and didn't say much. I made it raw and did not cook it. When I was cutting it up to put into the blender it felt like the consistency of butter.



I tasted it and it really didn't taste good, it literally tasted like I made butter. My daughter didn't like it at all either.



Did I make it correctly, or did I do something wrong. How do you make your baby food with avocado?

You made it correctly. You don't need to do anything to it... just blend it. It is possible that it wasn't ripe enough. It mixes easier when it is mushier.



Maybe your daughter doesn't like it? But you made it correctly.How do I make avocado baby food?
I've never heard of avocado baby food but it's basically guacamole without all the added stuff like tomatoes and onions. If it were me, I would have added some salt and pepper and a little garlic and a splash of lemon juice. But I don't know how old your baby is and how she'd deal with garlic so you might want to test it.How do I make avocado baby food?
Avocado is so soft naturally I used to just give it to my son in slices. He really enjoyed it and it was good practice for table foods. I could see how blending it would make it taste odd, it really needs some kind of texture. You might try just mashing it with a fork next time. Also avocado is one of those "you like or you don't" foods, so she may just not like it...How do I make avocado baby food?
I mashed a good soft one with a fork till smooth and my baby didn't like it. So I "gave" it to myself and put salt, garlic powder, pepper and lime juice in it. I let her taste it and she loved it.
In general, babies don't have complex taste pallets like we do, so things that taste bland to us are fine for babies. If she didn't like it, it's probably because it was a new food for her, not for any other more complicated reason. It can take 20-30 tries before a baby will learn to like a new food, so keep offering it. If you buy a very soft, ripe avocado, you can simply mash it with a fork and feed it to the baby, or cut it into very small pieces and let her gum it herself.
