- Heat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the butternut squash onto a baking tray and toss with the oil and cumin. Roast for 30-35 mins until lightly golden and tender. Allow to cool completely.
- Put the cooled butternut squash into a small food processor or use a handheld stick blender to blitz with the chickpeas and yogurt until mostly smooth but still textured. Serve with homemade wholemeal wraps for dipping or your baby’s fave veg sticks.
Tip: Use peeled and roughly chopped sweet potato or carrot in place of butternut squash if you like.
