Monday Madness...Pouch Addition
APPLE CARROT CINNAMON POUCHES
This morning I decided to refill my frozen pouch stock since there were only two left. Here is one of the flavor combinations I did...
I had a bunch of organic carrots and organic fuji apples and know my son loves both. I decided to add ground cinnamon to add another layer of flavor to his puree.
I peel and chop both the apples and carrots ( core the apple as well ) and steam them in my BÉABA babycook. I found that steaming the carrots and apples separately worked better since the carrots take a little longer. I steam the carrots first and then put them in a bowl to cool, then add the apples after they are steamed.
Once they are cooled a bit I add the carrots, apples and cinnamon back into the babycook (without the basket if using this machine) and purée until smooth.
I use the infantino squeeze station and the fresh squeeze pouches.

NOTE-Make sure your purées are smooth and not chunky because the chucks will get stuck when pushing the purée into the pouches and make a big mess...I've learned from experience :)
This recipe makes five 4oz pouches. You can double or even triple the recipe, label and date them and store in the freezer. They will defrost in a few hours out or overnight in the fridge.
Please check with your peditrician before enjoying if under 6 month of age.
If these ingredients are new to your child, please try independently first to make sure there are no allergies.
