Today we are making a simple baby recipe with pomegranate. A sweet little treat baby will love! We are pairing it with mango, which has a very mild flavor, as well as fromage blanc for a fresh, creamy touch, with vanilla!
You can start offering pomegranate to baby from 8 months. Please note: this recipe starts from 8 months, but we will not prepare a diced brunoise for that age; we will blend the pomegranate and mango into a compote. The brunoise can be served from 12 months!
A complete baby snack full of vitamins and calcium, so there is no reason to miss out. You will see that this recipe is very easy and quick to make, so do not be afraid to prepare it for baby, and feel free to keep some for yourself too 🙂
Here is what you need to make this baby recipe: mango brunoise marinated in pomegranate juice over vanilla fromage blanc (from 8 months, for one serving):
Ingredients
Preparation
We will start with the pomegranate. Simply cut it in half. We will only use half a pomegranate.
Squeeze the pomegranate half to extract the juice. If there are small bits left in the juice, do not hesitate to strain it through a fine-mesh sieve!
I got about 2 tablespoons of juice (30 ml). Set it aside.
Now for the mango. Cut it in half, and you can use the peeling technique I already explained for the mango, orange and banana compote recipe for baby using a glass.
Use only half the mango (I got about 3/4 cup mango flesh, or 120 g), and cut it into a fine brunoise: tiny 1/8-inch cubes (4 mm), no larger! (If baby is under 12 months, there is no need to make a brunoise: roughly chop it and blend it with the pomegranate juice 😉)
Now place this brunoise in a small container, then pour the pomegranate juice over it so it can marinate.
Place the marinated fruit in the fridge — please note, if baby is under 12 months, you will need to blend the mango and juice!
Now let’s take care of the vanilla. Scrape the seeds from a fresh vanilla bean. To do this, split it lengthwise (about 3/4 inch / 2 cm along the bean), then scrape out the tiny seeds.
Add these seeds to the fromage blanc in a bowl, then mix.
Place the vanilla fromage blanc at the bottom of a small container, then add the mango marinated in pomegranate juice on top. Chill for about 2 hours, and this little jar will be ready to serve to baby as a snack!
Our baby recipe, mango brunoise marinated in pomegranate juice over vanilla fromage blanc (from 8 months), is now finished, and baby can enjoy it!
Enjoy your meal, baby 😉
