Ingredients
- 8 ounces pitted dried prunes
Instructions
- Add the prunes to a bowl and cover with water. Soak for 30 minutes.
- Add prunes to a blender using a slotted spoon. Blend, adding 1/3-1/2 cup water to make a smooth puree—or as much as desired to reach the desired consistency. (Adding more water will make a smoother puree, less a thicker one.) Use the stick that came with your blender, or stop and start as needed to help the mixture move around in the blender.
- Serve or store.
Notes
- To store in the fridge: Add to small airtight containers and refrigerate for 3-5 days.
- To freeze: Add to a silicone ice cube tray and freeze overnight. Transfer frozen cubes to a zip top freezer bag and seal, removing as much air as possible. Freeze for up to 6 months.
- Serve alone or stir into baby oatmeal.
- Add to a simple smoothie to help with constipation.
- Spread onto a finger-size stick of toast to serve Baby Led Weaning style.
