It's obvious that I love cooking, since I'm a chef. But one of the best things that I do is cook with my sons.
Yesterday, when I asked my four year old, Kaleb, what he wanted for breakfast, he said "PIE! What four year old wouldn't! While he ate a bowl of cereal, we put the ingredients together to make breakfast pie!
 |
| We decided we wanted to put apples in our pie, so I let him help me peel several Fuji apples. I hate peeling apples! |
 |
| Kaleb loves adding the ingredients. This makes me a little nervous since baking requires precise measurements and I'm a control freak, but he rarely spills! |
 |
| There is always time to play Peter Pan! Argh! |
 |
| Now for the kneading! Then I realized that I left my roller at work. Never fear, you can always use a can as a roller, just be sure to clean it first. |
 |
| I thought it would be fun to make personal apple tarts. Just lightly sprayed the muffin tin with pan spray. |
 |
| I couldn't find Mom's cookie cutters so we used Kaleb's Play dough cutters. Again, I washed them first! :) |
 |
| We made apples and hearts and used these to top off the crust. |
After sprinkling with cinnamon sugar, this is our final result!
What a delicious and fun way to start my day!
 |
Live to Cook!
