Anyone make homemade plums

I bought some plums this week to make for LO, I was searching online how to make them and it sounds similar to making like a peach, I had a bad experience making peaches the first time so thought I would ask here first. How do you make yours?

Also maybe a dumb question but I don't eat plums, do they have a pit?

They do have a pit.  We just had a bunch of fresh ones and DD LOVED them (in the mesh bag feeder due to the pit).

We haven't done plums yet, but we did homemade peaches that came out nicely.  I peeled the peaches and then cut them off the pit in chunks to steam.  I made apricots, which have more of a plum consistency, by making an x on both sides of them, putting 4 of them in a pan with water and cooking until tender.  I then peeled them, which was sort of a pain, so I imagine that doing homemade plums might be a little messy, too.  With both the peaches and apricots, ds found them a bit too tart on their own, so they mostly are eaten mixed with other sweeter fruits like bananas, pears, apples, or blueberries.  I imagine pears and plums mixed would be very yummy.

I hope this helps!  If not, try wholesomebabyfood or nurturebaby websites.  They have good easy recipes for fruit.

check out www.wholesomebabyfoods.com.  I baked mine.  My LO does not like them since they are a bit tart. but I mix them in with other things.
