Ingredients

  • 2 ripe peaches
  • 1–2 tbsp water or breast milk (optional, to thin)

Method

  1. 01

    Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Score a small X on the bottom of 2 ripe peaches and blanch for 30 seconds, then transfer to an ice bath to loosen the skins.

  2. 02

    Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and chop the flesh into chunks.

  3. 03

    Steam or lightly simmer the peach chunks for 5–6 minutes until very tender (skip this step if peaches are very ripe and soft).

  4. 04

    Blend until smooth, adding a little water or breast milk as needed.

  5. 05

    Cool completely before serving.
