Sweet pears makes this puree a really easy way to get your baby excited about fruit early on. Pear puree is best for 6-8 months+ babies. It contains vitamins A, C and as well as potassium, phosphorus, magnesium and calcium - great for making strong baby bones.

Method

Peel and cut a pear into chunks so as to avoid the little seed portion.
Steam gently until tender.
Place in a blender/food processor and puree until smooth. You may be able to just use a fork instead.
Add extra hot water if needed but pears tend to be very runny and watery without adding liquid - add some baby cereal to thicken if needed.
