Gourmet french baby breakfast

This morning my mommy made me some really yummy breakfast.  It was french toast with mashed avocado and pear.


It's really simple to make and only took my mommy 10 minutes in the morning. The texture and taste combination will leave your little one asking for more.  I know I did! This is definitely something for all working mommies out there.  I'm going to share this with you...

Ingredients:
Pear
1/4 Avocado
1 Slice bread 
1 Egg
25ml Formula (for babies under 12 months)

Pear Puree:
Steam or bake the pear till cooked.  Then peal and fine grate. This can be done in bulk and put in the freezer in an ice tray.  
TIP: Do not microwave in the morning to defrost, the pear will loose it's sweetness.  Rather take it out the night before to put in the fridge to defrost.

Avocado Puree:
Merely use a fork to mash.  
TIP: You can use the rest of the avocado as play/practice food for the baby later in the day.  In doing so, the avocado does not go to waste by going dark.

French Toast:
Beat one egg with 25ml of formula.  Cut the crust of the bread off and dip the bread into the egg.  Make sure that the toast absorbs all the egg so that when fried it will be soft on the inside.  

Take a small frying will a little amount of oil (this is so that it won't stick) on a small flame and fry till golden.  Once done, cut into small cubes for easy eating.
TIP: There is no need to add any sugar or salt, as baby will be able to taste all the unique taste of the egg and bread.

Nutritional facts:
Pears
Pears provide ample Vitamin C, fiber and is cholesterol-free. Vitamin C will help to fight off those nasty colds and flus.  Also helps to build strong muscles, blood vessels, bones and teeth.  Most of all helps to keep the little one regular.

Avocado
The fast calories in avocado are of the heart-healthy variety (no cholesterol, monounsaturated fat), but they do increase your calorie count.  So not too much in a day.  Avocados contains Omega 3 fatty acids and are free of sodium.  This type of fat are good for a developing baby.

Happy Cooking Mommies :)
