Creamy Apple and Oat Puree

By Ksteve10

Ingredients

• 3 sweet apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
• 2 Tbs. water
• Pinch of ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1 tsp. agave nectar (optional - to add more sweetness)
• Per portion
• 1 Tbs. baby oats
• 2 Tbs. breast milk or formula

Preparation

Step 1

1. Put the apples in a saucepan with the water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and cook very gently until soft, 10 to 15 minutes.

2. Add the cinnamon, if using, and puree in a blender, or mash until smooth. Sweeten with the agave nectar, if using. Cool the applesauce and keep refrigerated until needed, or freeze in individual portions and thaw as required.

3. To serve, warm one portion (about 2 Tbs.) of the applesauce and stir in the oats and milk. Cool slightly and check the temperature before serving.
