Mango Blueberry Puree

March 21, 2012

There's nothing sweeter to feed a brand new little eater than fresh fruits when they are ripe and in season! Why serve your baby the same old ho-hum applesauce or other single-fruit purée when you can give him or her this creamy, naturally sweet, delicious homemade puree made from a variety of what nature has to offer?

My kids may be way past the baby food stage, but they still love this Mango Blueberry Puree. I frequently put it in their school lunch in place of applesauce. And if my little ones can't get enough of this vitamin-packed puree, I bet your baby won't be able to either!

    I remember seeing a video with blueberries. Like a smoothie. I can’t seem to find it. Is it just in my head? LOL

    I just made this for my 10 month old and he liked it alright but my 10 yr old loved it mostly ha ha! Thanks for sharing. It really inspired me to get out of my comfort zone and try something new. This was the first time i have ever bought mangos and i actually picked out papayas thinking they were the mangos at first. I know thats bad but funny to look back at.

    Added some overripe kiwis from my fridge, and then froze the puree in popsicle molds. Yummy, perfect pops!

    I bet this would be great in a “green” smoothie. My baby girl and I have been addicted to those lately. Thank you so much for all the great recipes. You really helped me when I first started making her baby food. I never bought any jars of baby “food”!

    This is maybe a dumb question, but what containers do you use when you send it with the kids? In my experience whenever I use a banana in a puree, it usually turns the mixture a little brown if it sits in a lunch box until lunch, but I’m thinking maybe it has to do with the container. I think my son would love this and I love the idea of subbing for applesauce.

      The bananas turn brown due to being “exposed” to air. Your container won’t likely change it. Maybe try adding a little lime juice or “Fruit Fresh” powder (ascorbic and citric acid). Both of these should keep the bananas from browning so much.

    And not only yammie for babies or bigger kids, also for mum and dad with ice cream or on a sandwich! It tastes like a summer holiday! (after a long winter here in Amsterdam)
