Introducing Fruit

I decided to vary the little man's diet and finally introduce some fruit.

I boiled the usual: Pear or apples. Grand.

Then I wanted to mix it up a little.

What about Apple and Plum? They go nice together don't they? Plum would be great for upkeep of healthy bowel movements rather than giving prune juice (same thing but fresh right?).

I bought a punnet of plums and let them ripen until they started to get soft, a bag of apples and went for it.

Pitted the plums and cored the apples.
In to the pot of water.
 
 
Bring it to the boil, let it simmer until it has reduced and the fruit will almost go to mush itself, the smell is so fresh and inviting around the kitchen!
 
For the Christmas season I added a pinch of Cinnamon and even family members used it as a compot for dessert's!
These get demolished every time!
 
Another option was green apples with green grapes!
I added to this some readymade custard and fresh strawberry purée:
The strawberry purée was literally done as follows;
Chopped up and into a frying pan and over heat until bubbling and simmer.
