Baby Food Blueberry Cream

teresaspindel's Note:

My baby son will eat ANYTHING with this blueberry cream on top. From 4 months.

• Total Time: 15 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 20

• 2 cups fresh blueberries or 2 cups frozen blueberries or 2 cups other berries
• 4 cups water
• ¼ cup cornstarch
• ¼ cup sugar

Directions:

1. Put cold water, sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan, and bring to a boil moving constantly, until the thing thickens and becomes transparent.
2. Add berries and cook 3-5 minutes, moving constantly.
3. Taste: you may want to add some more sugar if the berries are very sour, but the cream shouldn´t be too sweet.
4. Mix in a blender.
5. Once cold, pour cream in ice cubes trays and freeze.
6. 4 to 6 little cubes, unfrozen, are a serving for a baby.
7. 2 unfrozen cubes can be added to the porridge, or mixed with another fruit puree.
8. To remove blueberry stains from baby clothes, your clothes, the kitchen curtains, etc: soak in soapy water; the stains will disappear after a couple of hours.

Oh my! As a pediatrician, I would say please, please don't add sugar to a young baby's food! Pureeing the fruit (usually after cooking in a little bit of water) then adding a little bit of the cooking water, formula or breast milk is all that is needed. But homemade baby foods are a lot of fun and so easy to do!
