I started making baby food for Keegan today. He is not quite 4 months old and won't need it for another two months, but peaches are in season and they had some beautiful ones at the farmer's market today.
I really enjoyed making Ronan's food and seeing his reactions to all the new flavours and textures, and I can't wait to do it all again.
I simply peeled, pitted, and chopped up 6 peaches, covered them with water. Once the water was boiling, I covered the pot, reduced heat, and simmered for 10 minutes, until they were soft. Then I got out my handy immersion blender, and pureed it. I poured it into ice cube trays, covered them with wax paper, and popped it in the freezer. When they are fully frozen, I will take them out of the trays and put them into Ziploc bags and then back into the freezer.
When I was making Ronan's food, I went through 3 blenders and a food processor before getting an immersion blender and funnily enough, it was the cheapest out of the bunch, and the only one able to handle what I need it to!
