Ingredients
- Squash Baby Food Recipes - Butternut or Acorn Squash - Basic Purée (4)6 months+
- 1 acorn or butternut squash
- 1. Cut acorn or butternut squash in half, scoop out seeds
- 2. Place halves face down in a pan and cover with an inch of water
- 3. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 40 minutes to 1 hour - be sure the “shell/skin” puckers and halves feel soft then scoop squash “meat” out of the shell
- 4. Place squash "meat" into your choice of appliance for pureeing and begin pureeing.
- 5. Add water as necessary to achieve a smooth, thin consistency.
- hintYou can also peel the squash, scoop out the seeds and then cut into chunks and boil/steam until tender (like when boiling potatoes for mashed potatoes) then follow steps 4 and 5 - this way is most difficult however and rather time consuming.
