The combination of sweet potatoes and peaches make this a sweet and simple homemade food for your infant. Store the unused baby food in the refrigerator for 48 to 72 hours; or, freeze the remainder in ice cube trays to create individual servings, then store in an airtight container and thaw as desired (make sure to use it within 2 months). To thaw, microwave frozen food cubes in 15-second intervals for 60 seconds. For stove-top thawing, heat the cubes in a saucepan on low for 5 to 10 minutes. Make sure the baby food is cool before serving.
2 large sweet potatoes (washed)
