Once they're done, the peels slip off easily and then you can puree/mash them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-364551 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 23:33:29 +0000 sarac 364551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, but only because I don't puree it, I just cook and then sort of smash it. At about 11 months, my daughter just started eating whole apples, though, and I don't peel those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-364535 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 23:03:41 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 364535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't make LO applesauce, but when I make us some I always peel them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-364533 Sat, 27 Oct 2012 23:00:22 +0000 pinkcupcake 364533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use organic apples, and I've always peeled them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-362810 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:28:06 +0000 Mrsbells 362810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok thanks guys </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-362800 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:19:08 +0000 Andrea 362800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We buy organic apples and peel. DD liked it better that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-362796 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:18:34 +0000 regberadaisy 362796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would def peel if they're not organic or CNG. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-362793 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:17:35 +0000 Honeybee 362793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Oh that's a good point. We pick our own apples from an organic farm in the fall, and I make enough applesauce to last us all year. I guess if you're using store apples, you might want to peel them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-362791 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:16:28 +0000 chopsuey 362791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny. I was just thinking about making applesauce for my LO!<br /> Not sure whether I'd leave the skin on though. If my mom sends me apples from our trees at home I'll leave them on since I know our trees are 100% organic and pesticide free.<br /> If I buy organic from the market I may peel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-362775 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:11:31 +0000 Honeybee 362775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I just core and quarter the apples. I use the same process I use for green beans, so my apple sauce is little runny. I also use the same process for other fruit with edible outsides (pears, peaches, etc...). I think a lot of the nutrition is in the skin, so you're supposed to leave it on? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/apple-sauce-and-peels#post-362762 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:06:37 +0000 Mrsbells 362762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you make apple sauce for an infant do you peel the apple first? </p>
