How to offer

The apple's natural sweetness makes this a great gateway fish puree for reluctant eaters.

Nutrition note

Trout is rich in DHA and EPA, the omega-3 fatty acids critical for brain and eye development. It is also an excellent source of vitamin D, which is vital for calcium absorption and immune health. The high protein content supports your baby's structural growth.
