Tips by age

6-8mo

Use unsweetened full-fat plain yogurt and blend the mango completely smooth. Skip the maple syrup. Offer on a pre-loaded spoon.

Choking safety: Ensure the mango puree is fully smooth with no fibrous mango strands.

9-11mo

Stir the smooth mango through plain yogurt and let baby practice self-feeding with a spoon. Skip the maple syrup.

Choking safety: Keep the puree smooth, with no stringy mango pieces.

12-18mo

Serve in a small bowl with a spoon. Skip the maple syrup, since the mango is already naturally sweet.

18-24mo

Serve as written and you can leave small soft mango pieces in the puree for a little texture.

2-3y

Serve as written in a bowl. A small drizzle of maple syrup is fine at this age if you like.
