Method
- Prepare the fruit. Slice the peeled, cored green apple thinly — thin slices are important, as they bake completely soft and help prevent choking hazards. Place the slices in a greased ovenproof dish. Finely chop or grind the raisins before sprinkling over the apple, along with the brown sugar. Chopping the raisins finely is essential, as whole or roughly cut raisins can pose a choking risk for babies.
- Make the crumble. Rub 2 tsp of butter into 5 tbsp of CERELAC Rice & Mixed Fruit until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. This simple technique introduces a new texture using a base your baby already knows and enjoys.
- Assemble and bake. Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the fruit. Dust with ¼ tsp cinnamon powder — a gentle way to introduce babies to mild, aromatic spices. Bake at 180°C for 20 minutes, until lightly browned on top.
Key Ingredients for Catch-Up Growth and Strong Immunity
Green apple and raisins bring natural dietary fibre to this recipe, which supports gut-immune health by promoting a healthy digestive tract — a crucial foundation for overall immunity and nutrient absorption.
The crumble base uses CERELAC Rice & Mixed Fruit, a fortified infant cereal packed with immune-supportive micronutrients like iron and zinc, which are vital for protecting children as they grow.
The combination of butter and the cereal base also increases the energy density of the meal, providing excellent high-calorie support for active babies or those needing gentle catch-up growth — delivering essential fats in a small, easily digestible portion.
