Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup ripe fresh or frozen strawberries

Optional

  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  • Rinse well and pat dry. Remove the stems. Cut the strawberries into small pieces.
  • Add to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth. Depending on how juicy your strawberries are, you many need to add a little bit of water, breastmilk, or formula.
  • Optional: if you desire a smoother texture, strain the puree through a fine-mesh colander to remove any seeds or chunks.

Notes

Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
