I added a pinch of fresh vanilla bean and nutmeg into this puree because I was feeling it. I always like to add spices to my baby food purees, but you can omit them if you prefer.

WHEN CAN BABY EAT PEACHES?

Babies can have peaches as one of their first foods. When a baby can start on solids is determined by their own rate of development, which generally comes between 4-6 months of age. Some of the developmental milestones babies need to reach in order to start solids include: if your baby has solid control of their head and neck, if your baby has doubled in weight, and if your baby is reaching for or opening their mouth when you eat (see my guide here). Before you start your baby on purees, you should consult with your pediatrician to make sure your child is developmentally ready.

HOW TO STORE PEACH PUREE
REFRIGERATOR

You can store the puree in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. 

FREEZER 

This puree can be frozen for up to 4 months.

  • Spoon puree into a freezer storage container (this is my favorite freezer storage container). Do not overfill. 
  • Place the lid on the storage container or cover with a piece of saran wrap, and label with the date and recipe name. 
  • Place the tray into the freezer and let it freeze completely — preferably overnight.  
  • Pop-out the baby food cubes and place them in a ziplock baggie or stasher bag. Don’t forget to relabel the baggie or stager bag for future reference.

Label Tip: Don’t forget to label your purees before you place them in the fridge or freezer with the name of the puree and the date you made it. Take it from me; by the end of the week, you will completely forget what is in your freezer and how long it’s been there… because you know… mommy brain. 😉

GREAT PEACH STAGE 2 PUREES

While Peach Baby Food is absolutely amazing and heavenly by itself, it’s also super easy to mix and match with other nutrient-dense baby food purees. For a Stage Two puree, give these fun flavor combos a try!

  • Apples
  • Carrots
  • Sweet Potato
  • Quinoa Baby Cereal
  • Chicken
  • Pear
  • Yogurt
  • Mango
  • Broccoli

Be a Foodie Role Model for Baby: This puree is great to eat alongside your baby right from the start. This peach puree is best served with yogurt for a yummy breakfast or snack for both you (I like to add some chopped nuts and granola to mine) and your baby.

Tips
  • Use a Slotted Spoon: When transferring peaches from the saucepan to the blender, make sure to use a slotted spoon so you don’t add too much water to the puree.
  • Organic: Peaches are on the EWG Dirty Dozen list, so I recommend using organic peaches if possible. The good news is that organic frozen peaches are generally less than a dollar more per recipe, making this option a little more budget-friendly.

Helpful Tools
  • Medium Saucepan
  • Blender or Food Processor

  • Storage Containers for Fridge
  • Dark Green Baby Spoon

Straining small pieces of skin is an optional step.

How to Serve Peach Puree to Babies and Toddlers

You can serve this stage 1 baby food to a 6 or 7 month old from a spoon as it’s a very smooth puree.

For older babies and toddlers, you can stir it into whole milk yogurt, oatmeal or Baby Rice Cereal to add more nutrition., or simply serve it like you would applesauce in a small bowl.

Peach puree is rich in beta-carotene and potassium, and its mild, sweet taste makes it ideal for baby food. Peach is introduced into the child's diet at about 8-10 months, like any new product with a waiting period of 4-7 days.

Peach is great for feeding babies, as its natural sweetness will not leave you indifferent, and the softness of the fruit allows you to quickly introduce it as a finger food. Moreover, peach puree is so unique, as it can be mixed not only with other fruits, but also with meat. Moreover, peach can be preserved (the taste of peach puree does not change), frozen, both in the form of puree and in pieces. nine0003
