I wanted to create an original compote, and I had already tasted the combination of strawberries and red bell pepper in a restaurant. That&#8217;s what inspired me to transform it into a compote for Alix. The result: a resounding success! She was pleasantly surprised by the taste, smiled in amazement, and asked for more. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As I mentioned, it may sound surprising to have red bell pepper in a dessert, ice cream, or compote&#8230; but once you try it, you&#8217;ll want more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Red bell pepper is the sweetest among all the bell peppers and is generally well-liked by babies. This compote is a great way to introduce a vegetable into the diet of babies who might be hesitant about savory flavors\u2014it&#8217;s a good start, at least. \ud83d\ude09 It&#8217;s a vegetable rich in vitamin C (more than oranges and kiwis!) and antioxidants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, we&#8217;ll combine it with strawberries, a little marvel of nature that we adore, and add some apple to soften the compote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll need to cook this baby compote recipe of strawberry, apple, and red bell pepper (From 6 months, makes about 4.5 oz of compote):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"ingredients\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1.76 oz (50g) of red bell pepper<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1.94 oz (55g) of apple (Golden, about 1\/4 of an apple)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2.82 oz (80g) of strawberries<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"preparation\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8321\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Bell-Pepper-for-babies.jpg\" alt=\"Bell pepper for babies\" width=\"1000\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Bell-Pepper-for-babies.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Bell-Pepper-for-babies-300x130.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Bell-Pepper-for-babies-768x333.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Bell-Pepper-for-babies-585x253.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>We&#8217;ll start by washing our apple. Peel about 1\/4 of it (I got 1.94 oz after peeling). Cut the apple into small cubes and place them in a steamer basket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"382\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8324\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/golden-apple-for-babies.jpg\" alt=\"Golden apple for babies\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/golden-apple-for-babies.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/golden-apple-for-babies-300x104.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/golden-apple-for-babies-1024x356.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/golden-apple-for-babies-768x267.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/golden-apple-for-babies-585x203.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/>Next, let&#8217;s prepare the red bell pepper. Wash it and cut a piece from the bottom, where there are no seeds. Peel this part and remove any white parts if there are any. I obtained 1.76 oz of peeled red bell pepper. It&#8217;s important to peel it because the skin is not very digestible in the bell pepper. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"363\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/bell-pepper-for-a-baby-1024x363.jpg\" alt=\"Bell pepper for a baby\" class=\"wp-image-8320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/bell-pepper-for-a-baby-1024x363.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/bell-pepper-for-a-baby-300x106.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/bell-pepper-for-a-baby-768x272.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/bell-pepper-for-a-baby-585x207.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/bell-pepper-for-a-baby.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"cooking\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cooking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Place the piece of red bell pepper in the steamer basket, and the cooking process can begin (we&#8217;ll take care of our strawberries later).
