    Notes :
    • I have used thick broken wheat hence used more water to cook it. If using fine broken wheat variety, it takes less water than the mentioned amount.
    • The thin broken wheat variety gives smooth texture than thick variety.
    • You could also pressure cook the broken wheat for 4 whistles instead of cooking in the pan and continue with the further steps. Pressure cooking saves time.
    • When selecting apples, choose sweet tasting apples. Choose apples that are firm and discolored.
    • Skip jaggery if your baby is under year old. Use more apple puree instead for sweetness.
    • Generally broken wheat or apple 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.
    • Don't prefer whole nuts for small babies, instead add powdered nuts.
