Equipment
- Mumi and Bubi Trays for storing
Ingredients
- 24 ounces frozen organic blueberries
- 2 organic fuji apples cored, peeled and cut into big pieces (about 2-3 cups)
- 1 banana peeled
- 20 ounces frozen organic mangoes
Instructions
- Add blueberries, apples, and mangoes to a pot, simmer for 10 minutes on low-medium heat.
- Pour the blueberry mixture into a blender. Add the banana. Puree until smooth.
- Pour the mixture into ice cube trays, wrap, and freeze.
Notes
- If using frozen blueberries cook them over the stovetop as suggested in the recipe. If using fresh blueberries, you can add them to the blender.
- If your blender gets stuck add a bit of water to help get the blades moving.
- Give the puree a good stir before serving. Especially if you are defrosting from frozen. That way all the ingredients combine and get evenly distributed.
- If defrosting this puree will have the best result if you thaw it overnight in an airtight container rather than warming in the microwave.
- When serving new foods to your baby, it's always important to introduce only one new food at a time, and wait two days before introducing any other new foods to check for an allergic reaction.
- Serve at room temperature or cold.
- Makes about 96oz of baby food, 1 serving = 4oz of baby food.
