Ingredients
 
 

  • 5 small pears (or 3 medium, roughly chopped) (NOTE 1)
  • 2 small bananas (peeled, roughly chopped) (NOTE 2)
  • ½ large mango (peeled, roughly chopped) (NOTE 3)

Instructions
 

  • Roughly chop the pears, bananas and mangoes into approximately 2cm (.8in) pieces.
    chopping fruit
  • Use a medium to large saucepan that has a steamer attachment with a lid. Pour water to cover the saucepan by 1/3. Place the saucepan over high heat and bring it to a boil. Meanwhile, transfer the pears in a single layer on the steamer. Once the water boils, reduce the heat to medium, attach the steamer over and cover. Steam the pears for 5 minutes.
    steaming the pears
  • Add in the mango and bananas with the pears and steam for a further 5 minutes or until the pears have softened. Place the fruits on a large plate and leave them to cool down for 5 minutes.

Notes

(NOTE 1) Pears - Use soft ripe or overripe pears. I like to keep the peels on the pears for nutritional reasons, however, peeling them will make the purée smoother.
(NOTE 2) Banana - Just ripe bananas are good but don't use black overripe bananas as their strong taste may put them off.
(NOTE 3) Mango - Use a mango that is nice and ripe and is more sweet than sour. This way babies are more likely to eat it.
Leftovers - Allow the purée to cool completely at room temperature. Transfer thepurée into a sealed container and refrigerate. It'll be good for up to 4 days. Frozen purée will keep for up to 3 months.
Cooking measurements are in Australian standard spoon and cup measurements.
