it's best to remove the skin on the beans as it reduces the flatulence (gas production) which some babies may not tolerate well.

However, if your child can tolerate beans with the peel then you can give the child.
Do remember when introducing a new food, make it one at a time so if baby does not tolerate it you can easily know.
