apples at 7 months- must it be cooked?

Have started my LO on solids. From what I understand certain fruits like apples and pears need to be cooked ie steam before serving when they are < 12 months old- is this true or can they eat them "raw" and blended?

Think there might be a higher chance of allergic reactions to raw fruits (due to pollen allergy?) than cooked ones. Also, the texture of raw and cooked fruits are quite different. I started with cooked apple/pear, then gradually changed it to raw as baby got older. That said, I started my LO on rock melon, papaya, banana, grapes, etc before the age of 1

But if he has no allergic reaction, then you can actually continue if you want:)
