Fruit purees are an excellent way to introduce new fruits to your toddler and also sneak in some much needed nutrition. We have rounded up some unusual fruit purees that are guaranteed to make your toddlers love fruit and clamour for more!

Fruit purees can be made with seasonal fruits and form a basic starting point for when you are thinking of introducing solids to your child and wean them off breastmilk. It is quick to make, and can be frozen in batches for later use. It also makes a great grab-and-go snack on busy mornings when packed in squeezable fruit pouches.

All you need to do is wash, peel, chop and steam the fruits  (apples, pears, beetroot, avocado, plums, carrots, apricots) to soften them. Then blend them in a baby food processor. There are many fruits that have a natural soft flesh like banana, papaya, chickoo, mango, etc. These can be mashed with a fork if your baby is learning to bite and chew. Remember to de-seed fruits like oranges, melons, cherries to avoid choking and it is best to avoid adding any salt or sugar to fruit purees.

1.Plum and Banana Puree (9 months+)

In season plums, juicy and rich in Vitamin A help promote healthy vision. Just toss some peeled plums in the food processor. Add a banana to tone down the strong plum flavor and to make it more palatable for babies.

2. Peachy Pineapple Puree (10 months +)

This fruit  combination is a perfect stage 2 food for babies, and we think fruit popsicles is more interesting than the pureed version. If your baby is teething, these ice-cold fruit pops will have a soothing effect on his gums.
