🍠 Easy Thermomix baby food puree recipe
Looking for a quick and easy recipe to delight your baby? Here's a foolproof base recipe that can be adapted to your favorite vegetables:
Peel and chop 200g of fresh vegetables (carrot, zucchini, potato, etc.) into pieces. Tip: opt for organic vegetables to limit pesticides 🥕.
Pour 100ml of water into the Thermomix bowl. This quantity allows for quick steaming while preserving vitamins 💧.
Program: 15 minutes / 100°C / speed 1. With the lid securely closed, you can go about your business without stress! 🔥
At the end of cooking, blend for 30 seconds / speed 7. For a smoother texture, add a little cooking water or a spoonful of vegetable oil rich in omega 3 🌻.
Let it cool slightly before serving to baby. You can keep the puree for 48 hours in the fridge or several weeks in the freezer in suitable small containers ❄️.

❓ FAQ – Frequently asked questions about Thermomix baby food
From what age can I give Thermomix puree to a baby?
