Cinnamon Apple Crisp

This recipe is very similar to the blueberry apple crisp that I have previously posted, but is a more simple fruit dessert recipe. You could serve this as a fruit course or as a dessert; I usually just serve as a fruit course, but normally at dinner time. Once your child has truly begun to eat more diverse foods you can begin to introduce simple spices into their diet. You should never add sugar and salt to recipes as they do not need them, but you can add spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg and sprinkles of thyme and parsley. You want to introduce new flavors, but nothing that is too strong or too powerful for your baby’s developing taste buds. Normally as a rule, you can start to introduce these flavors around 7-8 months.

Cinnamon Apple Crisp

2 Basic Fruit Puree Cubes defrosted
1 TBSP oatmeal cereal or quick cooking oats cooked
1* tsp of purified water
1 light dust of Cinnamon

Mix the previous ingredients together and add more or less water to create a consistency that your baby will prefer. If using quick cooking oats you can add a little more to make a good serving size. Make sure to only add a little dash of cinnamon as you do not want too much of the spice, just a little taste of it.

*may need more or less of ingredient.
When I served this meal to Andrew he really loved the new taste! It is a great recipe to shake up the normal everyday meals! Have fun with your baby’s meal and it will make meal time a blast everytime!
