These Sweet Potato Mini Pies are a healthy and delicious option that is both easy to make and ideal for baby led weaning and toddler snacking.
This recipe mixes our Grass-Fed Beef Puree Cubes with our Sweet Potato Cubes to make a nutrient-dense easy-to-hold finger food for little tummies. The mini pies feature grass-fed beef, which is rich in iron, zinc and a great source of high quality protein, all of which are essential for healthy growth and development. Iron is particularly important as iron stores begin to decrease in bub’s stores after 6 months. The recipe also includes sweet potato which is rich in vitamin A for healthy eyesight and vitamin C which help with iron absorption and immune function.
