Ingredients

Spices, cinnamon

small pinch

Pear

1, peeled, cored and cut into chunks

Infant formula

a splash

Steps

1.

Put the pear into a steamer over simmering water and cook for around 8 mins until tender.

2.

Blitz to a purée in a food processor along with a very small pinch of cinnamon, if using. You may need to scrape the sides of the bowl a few times while blitzing to get a smooth consistency throughout. Add a splash of milk (or water from the saucepan), if necessary, to create a smooth texture although usually pears will blitz well without.

3.

Serve one portion and divide the rest between small containers or ice cube trays and freeze.
