1/8 tsp cardamom or other spice ((see notes))
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Prep: peel and roughly chop the pears.
  • Combine: place the pear chunks, spices (if using) and water into a medium saucepan, cover.
  • Cook: heat on medium-low heat for 10-15 minutes or until tender when pricked with a fork

  • Eat: serve to baby or freeze for another meal.

Just like apples, pears are a great option when starting to wean your baby. Look for ripe pears. Since ripe pears are always sweet, you can use any variety here.
