Roasted Sweet Potatoes with apples and peaches

Preheat oven to 400

Wash and peel (if baby cannot chew skins) sweet potatoes, apples and peaches. core apples and remove pits from peaches. Slice potatoes and fruits into strips. Toss together in large bowl with olive oil, cinnamon and tiny bit brown sugar. (sugars and spice can be omitted if desired)
Spread mixture onto baking sheet, in one layer. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and spread around with your hands. (This helps from sticking) Bake about 20-30 minutes.
 Allow to cool.
You can serve now as finger food if your child is at that stage. You can put all ingredients into a blender or food processor and pulse until the right consistancy for your baby, adding water as necessary. I then spoon into ice cube trays, cover and freeze. When solid I remove cubes from tray and put into small freezer bags that I can label. Most home made baby foods are good for about 3 months in the freezer. So make sure you date your cubes. 1 cube is 1 serving. Although my son usually eats about 2 cubes. (Hes a good eater.)
