Servings: 16 2 oz. servings
Calories: 46kcal
Ingredients
- 2 lbs. Frozen Sweet Peas (32 oz.)
- 3 1/4 cups Water
Instructions
- Place frozen peas in the bottom of Instant Pot, and pour 1 1/2 cups water over peas.
- Select Pressure Cook, Low, and change time to 3 minutes.
- Preheating will begin 10 seconds after settings are selected.
- Once peas are done, do a quick release for the pressure. (I like to do a gradual quick release to avoid any messy splatters... basically a quick release of steam in a few gradual nudges.)
- Now transfer cooked peas to your blender, and discard any excess liquid in the instant pot.
- Pour remaining 1 3/4 cup water over peas in blender, and blend or pulse (stirring as necessary), until you reach your desired consistency. For an even smoother puree, simply add more water 1 tbsp. at a time.
- Transfer Green Pea Puree to OXO Tot Baby Blocks, pop on the lids, and store in Refrigerator or Freezer.
- When baby is ready to eat, pull one out at a time and allow it to come to room temperature prior to feeding Baby.
Notes
