Fresh Fruit

Peel and cut fruit into 2.5cm cubes. Ensure any pips or stones are removed. For hard or firm fruit such as apples and pears, cook until soft before processing. Process no more than 4 cups at a time using the START/PAUSE button until pureed to desired consistency.

Baby food

Trim and cut cooked food (meat and/ or vegetables) into 2.5cm cubes. Process no more than 4 cups at a time using the START/PAUSE button until pureed to desired consistency.

NOTE

Add stock, milk or gravy during processing if mixture becomes too stiff. If required, freeze excess mixture in ice-cube trays, then repack in freezer bags ready for use.

Mixing with the QUAD

Processing blade

The quad blade mixes ingredients for cakes, batters, and egg-based sauces such as mayonnaise. Always remember to place the quad blade into the processing bowl before adding the food.

Butter cakes

Place softened butter and sugar into the processing bowl. Process using the START/PAUSE button until mixture is lightly creamed. With the motor running, add eggs one at a time down the small feed chute, mixing well after each addition. Add liquid and dry ingredients to the mixture in the processing bowl and process using the PULSE button until folded through evenly. If necessary, interrupt the processing, remove the lid and scrape the mixture from the sides of the bowl. Replace the lid and if adding dried fruit, nuts etc. using PULSE button until folded through evenly.
