Carrot, Mango + Apricot Baby Food Puree

Celebrate Halloween and all of Fall with this bright orange baby food puree that is filled with carrots, mangos and dried apricots.

We made this easy puree by gently steaming carrots and mango until just tender. At the same time, a few dried apricots were soaked. Then we mix it all together in a blender before puree until smooth and creamy. If you have frozen or fresh apricots, you can use those as well.

This puree is extremely freezer-friendly, so you may want to make a double batch so you can have some on hand for feature meals.

It’s sweet, earthy and rich with just a bit of sass from the mango. A special treat for your young goblin!
