slices
1. Put sliced carrots into a steamer basket and place in a saucepan filled with at least 2cm
of water. Place the pan with a tightfitting lid over high heat. Once the water comes to a
boil, reduce the heat to medium. Steam carrots for at least 45 minutes, until they are
completely soft.
2. Put steamed carrots with 1 cup of steaming liquid into the blender jar fitted with the
blending blade. Pulse carrots on low 5 times and then run on low for about 45 seconds.
Scrape jar down with a spatula and blend for an additional 20 seconds. If a smoother
consistency is desired, pulse in
1 tablespoon of cooking liquid at a time to the purée.
3. Allow mixture to cool. Fill ice cube trays or other 30ml containers to freeze or serve
immediately. Baby food should be consumed within 2 to 3 days if not freezing.
