When blending you might need to also add a little water. If the banana seems really thick you might need to add a little water until it reaches the right consistency. Start with a few tablespoons as you can always add more. If the bananas get too thick they will not blend well. So keep stopping and scraping down the sides of the blender as needed and adding water until all the bananas are smooth and blended well.
You basically only want to add as much water as is needed to help the blender out. Once all the banana is blended to a super smooth consistency you have baby food! Like I mentioned above you can make a LOT of baby food in a short amount of time. You want to be able to freeze it in serving sizes so that you can easily thaw out and use a small amount at a time.
This way you can have baby food for a month or more! To freeze baby food efficiently you really need to get these baby food cube trays. Simply scoop the pureed banana into the trays, place the lid on, and put it in the freezer.
Once they are completely frozen you can pop them out and store them in freezer bags that are labeled with the date made. Bananas will keep in the freezer for up to three months.
Now, bananas do tend to turn dark when refrigerated or frozen. They are perfectly safe to eat. However if you want to prevent this darkening you can add a tablespoon of lemon juice for each cup of banana puree.
Now you have a large supply of ready made, single serving, banana baby food cubes! How easy is that?! When it comes time to use your frozen banana cubes you need to be sure that they are thawed in advance. The easiest is to put it in a bowl with a lid the night before and let it thaw in the fridge.

Recipe Notes Banana : Look for bananas that are blemish-free and have a nice yellow colour. Nutrition Facts. Here's how to make the banana puree. In the U. Choose bananas with blemish-free yellow peel.
Green peel means the banana is underripe, while peel with too many brown spots means it's past its prime, or nearly past its prime. One medium fresh banana mixed with formula or breast milk yields 6 to 8 ounces of puree. Wash the banana with a mixture of three parts water and one part white vinegar to remove bacteria.
Rinse under cool running water, dry, and peel. Discard the peel and the ends of the banana. Slice the rest of the banana into pieces and then cut each piece into quarters.
