Yogurt, Banana, Oatmeal and Peanut butter

Offer plain, full-fat, pasteurized yogurt on a spoon or preloaded for self-feeding. Skip sweetened or honey-containing varieties. You can stir in a little fruit purée for flavor, or swirl yogurt into other foods.

Use a fully ripe banana so it mashes easily between two fingers. Peel it and offer it as a smooth mash on a spoon, or hand over a finger-length strip the baby can hold with a bit poking out of the fist. A firm or under-ripe banana is harder to manage, so soften it by mashing.

Cook oats with plenty of liquid into a smooth, thick oatmeal. Use breast milk, formula, or water, and thin it as needed so it's easy to swallow. Iron-fortified baby oat cereal works well here too.

Stir a small amount of smooth peanut butter into a warm purée, oatmeal, or yogurt until it is thin and lick-off soft, with no thick blobs. This both gets the allergen in safely and avoids the sticky-glob choking risk. A thin smear on a soft strip of toast works too.
