Baking bread with your child

With children you can do lovely things such as ‘baking bread’

It’s very simple and a lot of fun.For children under three year it is best when all the ingredients are pre-measured and put in little plastic beakers. It facilitates the pouring into the larger bowl. With older children, you can measure with them.

Ideal is to have all prepared on a little table, so any action the child will do is easy for them.

The following ingredients are needed:

• 1 kg flour (i.e. whole grain)
• 130 ml of warm water
• One cube of yeast
• One teaspoon of salt
• One tablespoonful of sugar
• Two tablespoonful of oil (i.e. sunflower oil)

And that’s how it’s done:

Ingredients: flour, oil, yeast, salt, sugar, warm water

All ingredients are purred into a large bowl.

Mix it well.

Cover the bowl with a large cloth and let rest for at least one hour.

After you put it in the oven for one hour…DONE!
