To begin the process, all you have to do is to throw in your peeled and pitted fruits into a blender, puree, and pour into ice cube trays for freezing.Īt first, I used the ice cube trays that I already had sitting around, and even used silicone muffin tins for freezing the purees into serving size amounts. I decided that fruit ice cubes are perfect for making smoothies! Freezing fruit in a way that saves space Eventually my son stopped eating pureed foods, but I still had a stash in the freezer that I didn’t want going to waste. To always have a supply of baby food available, I ended up pureeing fruits in large batches, and then freezing it in ice cube trays to have convenient amounts ready to defrost and serve as needed. Well, actually I did a couple of times in “emergency” situations, but he refused to eat them. Comparing the homemade food with the canned stuff, I have to say that I don’t blame him. This all began after I had a bunch of leftover homemade baby food in my freezer. I think I’ve found the best way to effectively freeze fruit so that it doesn’t waste space, and keeps really well.

When you need to freeze a lot of fruit, but don’t have a lot of free space in your freezer, it’s important to find the best ways to maximize your space.

Making Fruit ice cubes for smoothies or homemade baby food

Fruits are always a lot more expensive when they aren’t in season. Not only is a great way to always have your favorite fruits available, but it helps save a lot of money. I then freeze them to have the fruits available all year. Not all of our favorite fruits are available at all times of the year, so I like to take advantage of when fruits are in season, and buying in bulk. I’ll give you my tips for making the perfect smoothie below the recipe! Conserving Fruits in Season I’ve found that one of the best ways to easily get him to eat some fruit, veggies, and healthy proteins, is with a fruit smoothie! One of his favorites is a smoothie that I like to call the Popeye smoothie for kids.

I love smoothies for both me and for my son.
