Method

1

Wash and peel the sweet potato and apple thoroughly.

2

Dice both the sweet potato and apple into small, uniform pieces, about 1/2 inch cubes. This helps them cook evenly.

3

Place the diced sweet potato and apple in a steamer basket over a pot of simmering water. Cover and steam for 15-20 minutes, or until both are very tender and easily pierced with a fork.

4

Carefully transfer the steamed sweet potato and apple to a blender or food processor. Add 1/4 cup of filtered water (or breast milk/formula for added nutrition and creaminess).

5

Blend until completely smooth, adding more water, breast milk, or formula a tablespoon at a time if needed to reach your desired consistency. For a six-month-old, it should be a very smooth, lump-free puree.

6

Allow the puree to cool completely before serving to your baby. You can serve a small portion immediately and store the rest in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze in ice cube trays for longer storage.
