Steamed Apple Purée

Method

1. 1 Peel the apple, cut out the core and pips, and chop it small.
2. 2 Steam for 12 minutes until translucent and soft.
3. 3 Mash smooth, keeping the steaming water to loosen it.
4. 4 Cook it rather than serving it raw: raw apple is hard, and it is one of the commonest things small children choke on.
