Notes
Tip
These two fruits make great mixers with other foods and also taste great together. By pureeing separately and freezing, you can use in other dishes or stir together to make this puree.
Variation
For a microwave method: Peel, core and cut the apple into small pieces. Place in a microwave-safe container with a little bit of water. Cover with cling wrap, leaving a corner free to allow steam to vent and cook on HIGH for a minute or until soft.
Storage
Can be frozen for up to six weeks.
