Blueberry and apple purée
- Age: 6–8 months (First tastes)
- Texture: Purée
- Prep: 4 min
- Cook: 8 min
- Makes: 3 portions
Ingredients
- a handful blueberries
- 1 sweet eating apple
Contains: None of the common allergens
Method
- Peel, core and chop the apple; simmer with the blueberries and a splash of water 8 minutes until collapsed.
- Blend smooth and push through a sieve — blueberry skins do not break down.

Safety: Blueberries are cooked and sieved here; whole blueberries are a choking shape until they are quartered, much later.
