serving options for banana for 6 month old baby-led weaning

cut the banana in half; carefully remove the top of the peel with a knife so half of it still has the peel on as it is easy for baby to grab that way
fully peel the banana and let the baby hold; this may or may not be too slippery for them but they may prefer it more than option one as it lets them chew on the whole banana not just the top
half the banana, peel it and separate into thirds by pushing your finger through the middle (or cut)

serving options for banana for 9 month old baby

mash on a piece of toast or baby pancake

Notes

Babies can eat bananas as soon as they are ready to start eating solid foods.
They are not a common choking hazard but they are common cause of gagging.
Serve the softest banana you have, a very ripe one and it should be easy for baby to eat it.
If not eaten immediately they will start to brown. Bananas are safe to eat when brown and if need be, store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days or freeze.
