method

Prep the beans by washing and trimming the ends, then chopping them into roughly 2 cm pieces.

Transfer the cooked beans to the blending container. Add some reserved steaming water (or 1–2 tablespoons of breast milk) if you prefer a smoother purée.
Select the Auto Blend setting and blend until smooth and creamy.

Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat gently using the Steam function on the KiddoKook Pro or with a warm water bath before serving.

tips

Texture check: For a smoother purée, add a splash of water or breast milk before blending. For older babies, use the Pulse function for a thicker, textured version.

For variety: Mix and match with sweet potato, carrot, or pea purée once your baby has tried each veggie individually.

For a flavour boost: Add a pinch of baby-safe herbs like dill or parsley as your little one becomes more adventurous.

Serving tip: Serve warm or chilled for a refreshing veggie snack on warmer days.
