To round out our first week of school, I thought a little “cooking school” would be fun. The boys are always begging to help in the kitchen, so I sifted through my “to bake” recipes and found this gem: One Bowl Apple Cake. In theory, it’s the perfect recipe for baking with little people. One bowl. Easy ingredients. Easy peasy. I couldn’t wait for our special baking session.
HAH. Oh man. Let’s just say, when you have an overtired baby attached to your hip and two over-eager kids fighting to help, cooking is more than just cooking…it becomes an experience!
The cake was definitely good, but because of all of the above mentioned craziness, I didn’t watch the last few minutes and almost burnt the whole thing. Nothing a little (or a lot) powdered sugar won’t fix! The boys were so excited with their creation. Their giddiness make “cooking school” totally worth it, so I know we’ll be baking together again soon.
I’m definitely going to make this cake again…all by myself!
This looks heavenly! Glad to know you approve. I love to cook any apple recipe in the fall! 😀
oooo this looks good. haha…cooking with kids…now that is something i know i will be doing when madeline gets a bit older. she wants to be a part of everything already!! 🙂
