A Brighter Future for Everyone
Have a baking/ preparing food day!
Have a fun day in the kitchen with your child as your sous-chef!
Can they help you prepare breakfast? They might be able to pour the cereal and milk or spread butter on toast with your help.
Look at some of the ideas below you could do for lunch or dinner:
Whisk 2 eggs with a little milk, cut the bread in halves and coat them in the mixture, the adult cooks it in a frying pan until it is brown on both sides.
You could also make some tasty treats such as:
Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5.
Beat the butter and the sugar together until smooth. You might need the adult to help you with this.
Stir in the flour a little bit at a time and then put your hands in the bowl to squash it all together into a ball.
Take the ball out of the bowl and roll out gently until the paste is 1cm/½in thick. If you don't have a rolling pin you can use your hands to flatten it instead.
Cut into rounds or fingers and place onto a baking tray.
Use a fork to gently make a pattern on the top.
Sprinkle with caster sugar and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes (this helps it to keep its shape when it is cooked in the oven).
Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until pale golden-brown. Set aside to cool on a wire rack.
I am sure you will have lots of your own ideas too!
I hope your day is a taste sensation!
