In general, bananas are ideal, not only for babies who are starting on their solid food diet, but also for babies beyond six months. It is high in potassium content, which is useful in helping baby develop their muscles and aids in helping regulate blood chemistry. Bananas in its raw form are okay for baby to eat 6 months and above, usually mashed to a smooth consistency.

Personally, for babies -- a ripe raw mashed up banana is the best because it retains all its nutrients that might be lost through cooking.
