Calories 46 kcal
1½ ounces Apple Puree 1½ ounces plain whole milk yogurt (regular or Greek) ½ ground flaxseeds (or hemp seeds)
Add the ingredients to a small bowl. Stir to combine well.
Add to the pouch, avoiding overfilling. If using a zip bottom style of pouch, be sure the cap is on to prevent the puree from coming out.
Serve or store for up to 5 days. (If storing leftovers in a pouch, store in the fridge and serve within 24 hours.)
If using a pouch with a zipper bottom, like this one from Wee Sprout , avoid overfilling to prevent difficulty sealing the pouch.
Pouch flavor ideas:
Be sure the mixture is totally smooth to avoid it becoming stuck in the opening of the pouch.
Add 1/2 teaspoon hemp seeds or 2 tablespoons full fat coconut cream or plain yogurt to any mixture for extra healthy fats.
Try any other Baby Food Combination or my No-Cook Baby Foods in a pouch.
Serve foods you'd usually serve warm (like soups) just warm, not hot. Test on your wrist to be sure the temperature is not hot.
Omit any added salt or sweeteners as needed.
Combine pouches with baby led weaning foods for a wide range of texture exposure.
Store leftover pouches in the fridge for up to 24 hours and serve again.
