Fresh apricot purée

Fresh apricot purée

Ingredients

  • 4 ripe apricots

Contains: None of the common allergens

Method

  1. Halve, stone and chop the apricots.
  2. Steam 5 minutes until soft; blend smooth and sieve if the skins have not broken down.
  3. Cool to lukewarm.
Safety: No salt and no sugar. A baby's kidneys cannot handle added salt, and nothing here needs it.
Storage: Fridge 2 days, freezer 1 month.
Tip: Tart-sweet and bright orange. Mix half and half with banana or pear for a baby who finds it sharp.
