Peel, core and cut an apple into chunks and place them into a pan with just enough water to slightly cover the chunks.

Now boil or steam until tender.To achieve a smooth consistency (which is imperative while feeding baby food at stage 1), mash the boiled apple with a potato masher.

If that doesn't work, make a puree by blending it with a hand-blender. Isn't the recipe REALLY easy and healthy snack
