Baby Food: Apple Pie

For 6 months or older.

3 cooking apples
1 egg yolk (for babies 6 months to 10 months,
omit egg yolk and thicken with infant cereal)
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon water or apple juice
Small pinch of ground cinnamon

Peel, core and dice the apple into small pieces. Add to the lemon juice and water and cook over medium heat in a small saucepan for 20 minutes or until soft.

Mash or puree to desired consistency. Beat in the egg yolk (or infant cereal) and sugar until smooth. For babies age 6 months to 10 months, omit egg and add infant cereal by 1 tablespoon, until you get the desired consistency. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until set. Cool before serving.
