Apple Pears Puree for Babies – How to make Apple Pear PureeforBabies|Baby Food

Apple & pears can make a great first food for babies. Both are rich in fiber and Vitamin C. Pears are especially good for treating constipation in babies. Steaming apples and pears makes easier digestion.I introduced apple & pears to my baby at her 6th month as individual purees. Once her tummy is adjusted to those purees, I combined them and offered this combination Puree as apple pears Puree. She loves it for its sweetness.

Notes :

• Try this puree with Red delicious & gala apple variety of your baby like more sweet taste.
• You can mash it with fork instead of blending the apple and pears.
• Generally apple /pear doesn’t cause any allergies, but check for symptoms and stop feeding your baby if you find any.
• Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
• Steaming is a healthy option for baby food than pressure cooking. So I prefer steaming using a Idli pot or steamer.
