Prep Time 5 min
Cook Time 12 min

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup (60 mL) mashed banana
  • Pinch ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  • Step 1

    Place your egg in a small pot and cover with cold water. The water should be about an inch or so higher than the egg. Cover the pot with a lid. Over high heat, bring your egg to a rolling boil.

  • Step 2

    Remove from heat and let stand, 12 minutes.

  • Step 3

    Drain water and immediately run cold water over egg until cooled. Rapid cooling helps prevent a green ring from forming around the yolks.

  • Step 4

    Peel egg and place in a bowl. Mash very well.

  • Step 5

    In a small bowl, combine mashed banana with cinnamon. Add banana mixture to egg and mash together very well until you have your desired consistency. Add a little breast milk or formula to thin if you like.
