Today we tried to do our own version of a Homeschool Cooking Show to share with you. I'm going to say straight up, that this didn't go as planned. There were tears. There was fighting. There was a "stern-talking-to" at one point. A lesson on fractions was interrupted when a character lesson raised in importance. It took us 45 minutes to make something I could have made in five. We made a mess. A fairly large one. We tried to video tape our natural reaction to the lunch coming out of the oven, but the sun in the background didn't cooperate so we had to do a lame fabricated one...
But here is our Pannekoeken lunch lesson:
Pannekoeken recipe:
Preheat: 9x13 pan dotted with butter
5 or 6 eggs
1 1/2 C Milk
1 1/2 C Flour
1 heaping T. Sugar
1 T. Melted butter/with a little salt
Mix above ingredients together
Bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes
Serve with: syrup, fruit, whip cream, brown sugar, or powdered sugar.
**Bring to the table piping hot, banging on an old tin pie plate shouting "Pannekoeken, Pannekoeken"
How many homeschoolers does it take to make lunch in your house? What are some fun things you do at meal times? Do you include kids in your cooking? Do you have a favorite or funny recipe?
Did you really yell "pannekoeken"? If so, you guys deserve to work at the restaraunt! It seems they barely whisper when they come out with the food now days!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. And we LOVE the idea of cooking together as a family! This morning we made brunch together. Buttermilk pancakes; gouda, bacon, and green onion omlettes; and a smoothy!
We really do yell it! It is incredibly OBNOXIOUS ;)
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to the restaurant in YEARS! I didn't even know it was still around!!! We used to love going there as a family after church when I was a kid!
Sounds like a yummy brunch! I love that you're cooking with your kids! There's something about being in the kitchen together & working together toward a meal. The kids are more open to the food too!!!
Sorry it took me so many days to watch this....Love it :). Our recipe is a bit different....but not much....2 Tbsp butter, 3 eggs, 1/2 cup of both butter and milk and an eighth tsp salt....When we add apples I add an extra chunk of butter and let the apples brown, sugar, cinnamon and butter sit in the oven for a bit so that the apples soften up....top with whipped cream and almost dessert like :) Country mom here is pooped....I'm going to be lucky if I can get my teeth brushed tonight....one of these days I'll get a post on here.....soon!! :)
