Sweet potato is a great choice for your 9-month-old—nutritious, high in fiber, and naturally sweet enough that most babies love it. The simplest and safest method: wash your sweet potato thoroughly, boil or bake it in its skin until very soft, then peel and mash with a fork. If it's too thick, thin it with a little breastmilk, formula, or water to reach puree consistency.
To add some variety: mix mashed sweet potato with a teaspoon of yogurt (if your baby isn't allergic to cow's milk protein and has tried yogurt before). Another option—combine it with carrot, squash, or apple puree to create an unsalted, plain-spiced mixture. If your baby is ready for finger foods, cut sweet potato into thin sticks and steam until very soft to serve as "finger food."
Everything stays unsalted and sugar-free; when introducing new foods at 9 months, remember the three-day rule before adding the next food. The taste will suit their palate just fine.
