2 tablespoon (medium) of Avocado puree (30 g) has 48 calories. That works out to 160 calories per 100 g. It contains 2.6 g of carbs, 0.6 g of protein, 4.4 g of fat and 2 g of fiber. Its 0.4 mg of B5 covers 8% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 15 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Made by mashing ripe avocados until smooth or leaving a little texture, avocado puree is a simple way to use a fruit native to Central America. A squeeze of lemon or lime helps brighten its mild, buttery flavour; it can be seasoned to taste or kept plain.
Spread it on toast, spoon it into sandwiches and wraps, or serve it alongside eggs, beans, grilled fish, or vegetables. It is creamy without dairy and provides mostly unsaturated fat, along with fibre; a 100 g portion has 6.7 g of fibre. For a lighter meal, pair a modest amount with crunchy vegetables or whole-grain toast rather than adding several rich toppings.

High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

To make avocado puree, remove the skin and pit from a ripe avocado, then mash the flesh with a fork or blend it until smooth. Add a little water or lemon juice if you want a thinner consistency.
Add lemon or lime juice and limit the puree’s contact with air. Press food-safe wrap directly onto the surface or store it in an airtight container; browning is oxidation and does not by itself mean the puree has spoiled.
Avocado puree usually keeps for about 1–2 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. A browned surface can be scraped off, but discard the puree if it has mold, an unpleasant smell, or other clear signs of spoilage.
Yes, avocado puree can be frozen, although it may become slightly watery or grainy after thawing. Freeze it in airtight, portion-sized containers, thaw it in the refrigerator, and do not refreeze puree once it has thawed.
No. Avocado puree can be plain mashed avocado, while guacamole is typically seasoned with ingredients such as lime, onion, tomato, and chile. You can use plain puree in place of guacamole, but it will taste less seasoned.
Yes, plain avocado puree can be offered when a baby is ready for complementary foods. Its soft texture is easy to mash; do not add salt, sugar, or honey, and adjust the texture to the baby’s feeding ability.
Avocado puree works as a spread for toast or sandwiches, a creamy addition to sauces and dressings, or a topping for eggs and grain bowls. Add it near serving time in hot dishes to preserve its fresh flavor.
A ripe avocado yields slightly to gentle pressure and is easy to mash. If it feels hard, leave it to ripen at room temperature; avoid fruit that is very mushy, bruised, or brown inside.
Yes, avocado puree can be made without lemon juice. Lemon adds tang and slows browning, but it is not needed for the texture; cover the puree tightly and use it soon if you leave the juice out.
Yes, avocado puree can be stirred into warm dishes, but prolonged cooking may change its flavor and texture. For a creamy sauce or soup, mix it in after removing the dish from the heat rather than boiling it.
