Fruit Puree for Babies and Toddlers
Comments: It is also possible to use dried fruits; it is not necessary nor easy to peel dried fruits.
Proceed as for fresh fruits, but cooking time may vary.
  • Any really ripe fruits such as apples, peaches, or prunes, ...
  • Peel and, if necessary stone or seed fruits.
  • Cut fruits into small pieces.
  • Transfer fruit pieces into a casserole, and pour in enough water to cover all the pieces.
  • Bring to boil, lower heat and simmer slowly until soft, for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Drain fruits reserving cooking juices if desired, to puree the fruits until smooth to taste.
  • If puree is too strong or too acid for baby, mix in a little banana or papaya puree.
