Slow Cooker Baby Food Recipes
Do You Have A New Baby And Don’t Know What To Feed It? Then Check
This Article Out!
So, you just brought home a new little bundle of joy. You're on a
tight budge perhaps and wonder how you might be able to afford your
newborns food? I got a little secret to tell you that you may not know,
and if you do, well then I got a few recipes to add to your collection.
Yes, that's right, you can make your baby's food right in that mini slow
cooker. Amazing isn't it? It’s perfectly safe
to do this as many moms have been doing this for a while now through
some research I have conducted. Don't believe me? Well, give a try at
these recipes and see if your baby loves them. From the ingredients,
you'll see they're very safe and very healthy.
Best part of making my own baby food is that you know exactly what goes
into the foods you prepare. If you have a larger
slow cooker, just prepare the foods into separate smaller
jars, fill the slow cooker with 3-4cm of water and cook away.
I started my 3 month old on fruits and vegetables such as pear, apple,
pumpkin, zucchini and he loves it. His clear favorite is slow cooked
pears which he loves so much that he breaks out into laughter!

Slow Cooker Safety Tips
- When purchasing a crockpot, look for one with a removable liner. They
are much easier to clean. If you have a nonremovable liner, however, all is
not lost! Line your crockpot with a cooking bag and you'll have no cleanup
at all. Spray the inside of the liner with cooking spray before you fill it
to make cleanup easier.
- 140F/60C is the temperature the food needs to reach as quickly as
possible. If you are at home during the cooking times, test the food
temperature after four hours of cooking on LOW - the temp should be at least
140F/60C.
- For food safety reasons, it's a good idea to cook on HIGH for the first
hour to quickly bring the temperature up to 140F/60C. Then turn the dial to
LOW and finish cooking.
- Experts recommend you do not put frozen foods in the crockpot. All foods
should be defrosted before cooking so the food temperature can reach
140F/60C as soon as possible. However, since none of my family members are
in a high-risk group, I often cook frozen foods in the crockpot. The
informed choice is up to you.
- Remove cooked food from the crockpot or liner before you refrigerate the
cooked food. Because the liner is made of such thick material, the food
won't cool down quickly enough to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
