The Easiest Homemade Squeeze Pouches
The simplest and quickest method for making nutritious homemade squeeze pouches for babies and toddlers. Use homemade applesauce, yogurt, or a fruit and veggie combination!
Equipment
- Infantino Squeeze Station
- Infantino Pouches
Ingredients
- Homemade Applesauce or Yogurt (or other purée)
Instructions
- First, prepare the purée or yogurt. Any vegetables being added into the applesauce should be cooked so that they’re soft. Using the immersion blender or food processor, blend the combination of choice until the consistency is smooth. There shouldn’t be any chunks or the purée will not go into the pouches (and let’s be real, the kids wont eat it). Frozen fruit will need to be thawed.
- Second, set up the Infantino Squeeze Station. Assemble the station, and add the 3 pouches to the station for filling.
- Next, add the purée to the funnel above each pouch. Using the provided tool, push the purée into the pouch. Don’t overfill the funnels or it gets messy quickly.
- Unscrew the funnel and remove the pouch. Add the lid.
- Finally, label the pouch with contents and the date. (FYI - it is easier to write on the pouches prior to putting them into the Squeeze Station and filling them)
- Repeat this process until all of your purée is in the pouches.
Notes
Note - homemade baby food pouches need to be a much thinner consistency than a pouch that is made for older kids. Please pay attention to the consistency and the appropriate thickness for baby’s/ toddlers/ older children.
