Directions
Puree cooked apples until smooth or chunky, depending on the age of your baby and tastes of your family.
VARIATIONS: Try one of the following for a change of taste, depending on the age of your baby:
þ Puree uncooked berries with apples. þ Puree RIPE, peeled, and pitted apricots with apples (to peel apricots easily, see Just Peachy recipe). þ Mix in a few drops of vanilla or almond extract. þ Dust with a little ground cinnamon. þ Mix in some lemon zest (finely grated yellow peel without the white pith). þ Mix in a few ground walnuts and a little maple syrup. þ Mix in a handful of raisins soaked in apple juice until plump. þ Top individual servings with a dollop of yogurt; marbelize by running a knife through it once in a zigzag pattern.
