Homemade Spinach Baby Food Recipe
Author: Becky's Best Bites
Serves: 16
- 16 oz. organic baby spinach leaves
- Put about an inch or so of water in your large stock pot. Add a steamer basket to the pot, making sure that there is no water visible in the basket.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- Once the water is rapidly boiling, fill the steamer basket with spinach and cover the pot.
- Steam the spinach for 2-3 minutes or until the spinach is wilted down and a dark green color.
- Remove the cooked spinach and transfer to the food processor.
- Process the cooked spinach until it creates a puree, adding some of the cooking water if necessary to thin it out.
- Use a spoon to fill up the ice cube trays with the spinach puree.
- Place trays of baby food in the freezer and freeze until solid, usually over night or up to 24 hours.
- Once frozen, pop the cubes of spinach baby food out of the trays and place into either vacuum sealer pouches or freezer storage bags.
- Either vacuum seal the pouches or try to squeeze out as much air as possible out the freezer storage bags.
- Place back in the freezer until needed.
- Thaw as needed. Each cube is 1 ounce of baby food.
