The good news is it's super easy to cook apples so that they are flavorful and safe for your baby. The next few slides will show the top methods to try.
Apple puree is basically the same thing as applesauce. All you have to do is cook the apples (by stewing, steaming, or baking) and blend.
Place water in a pot, add steamer basket, and bring to a boil. Add apples, cover, reduce heat to medium, and cook until easily pierce-able with a fork.
Cut the apple in half, rub with butter (or oil) and cinnamon, and bake!
