Carrots are an excellent source of vitamin A. Carrots also contain potassium and calcium.

The ratio of raw to steamed carrots remain the same. 1 cup of raw carrots will make approximately 1 cup of puree.

Cut washed carrot into slices or pieces. Steam the carrot slices and allow them time to slightly cool. Blend with immersion blender to desired consistency. Add breast milk or water to thin the puree to desired consistency.

For Stage 3 and stage 4 cut the raw carrots into pieces sized for little fingers to pick up easily before steaming. Steam carrots just until tender. Serve cool or warm.
