Cook Time

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.
