(Allergy-Free)
6 gala apples
6 bosc pears
Water
Pare and core the apples and pears. Place upside-down on deep baking dish. Pour about 2 cups of water into dish - just enough to come half-way up the fruit. Bake for 45 minutes to an hour at 350 degrees. Take dish out and let cool. When fruit is cool enough to handle, remove skins and place half the fruit and juice into blender. Pulse bosc, then blend until nice and smooth. Serve immediately, place in hot jars to can, or pour into ice-cube trays to freeze. Enjoy!
Optional: add cinnamon for added flavor.
This is great for babies, toddlers, older kids and adults. The flavor of this combination is so delicious you will wish you would have made a double batch. You may ask "why should I go to this trouble when you can buy jarred baby food at the store?" My simple answer is that with this recipe YOU know what is in the product. Baby food in the store is allowed to contain preservatives without disclosing it on the label because of it being in so-called "small amounts". Preservatives have been proven to affect behavior in children and leaves toxins in the liver and kidneys.
For babies: freeze the sauce into ice-cube trays. When frozen transfer to ziploc baggy to retain freshness. Lasts 2 months in freezer.
