Raspberry Pear Oatmeal, Stage 3 Meals

Raspberry Pear Oatmeal is so easy to make and has a sweet, bright flavor - a great way to start the day! Not only is this breakfast easy to make and completely delicious, it is full of nutrients, antioxidants and complex carbohydrates for energy.



This recipe is suitable for babies 10-12 months, toddlers, big kids and adults.  Always make sure the consistency of your baby's food is one he can handle. 

What you'll need:
1/4 cup of old fashioned rolled oats
1 soft, ripe Bartlett, Bosc or Anjou pear - washed, peeled and chopped
Handful of organic raspberries - washed
Makes 1-2 baby sized portions

*Bring 3/4 cup of purified water to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat and add the oats.
*Lower the heat to medium and let the oats cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until all the water is absorbed.
*While the oatmeal is cooking, place the pear and raspberries into a food processor or blender.  Blend until smooth.
*Combine cooked oats and raspberry pear puree in a bowl and serve.
*Raspberry Pear Oatmeal can be stored in an airtight container, like our Sage Spoonfuls jars, for up to 3 days in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer.

*For a baby 7-9 months, substitute blueberries for the raspberries and pulverize the oats in a blender or food processor before cooking.
