Join me for this fun ongoing baking course to learn how to cook delicious recipes. We'll focus on different desserts, snacks and treats weekly to give learners an opportunity to use a variety of ingredients, equipment and techniques. Recipes can be adapted for vegetarians. We will start class with a couple of minutes of introductions, making sure that everyone knows each other's names. We will then check that we have the correct ingredients and equipment, and have clean hands and a clean work surface. We will go through the recipe step by step, so that all learners can follow along. Ingredients will need to be measured before class, to leave learners enough time for each step. By the end of class, learners will know how to follow and complete the recipe. Please be aware, recipes may not always be completed in the 30 minute live class session. Sometimes the food will need additional heating or cooling time, or decoration steps will need to be finished. Ingredient and kitchen equipment lists will be posted in the classroom around a week before each class. I will email learners who sign-up after this time as they will not be able to see the prior classroom posts, please allow 24 hours after signing-up for the ingredient and kitchen equipment email to reach you.

Other Details
Parental Guidance
When you enroll in this class, you accept full responsibility for your learner's safety. It is essential that a responsible adult is in the same room as the learner (Outschool policy is that adults must remain off camera) and ready to step in to help if necessary.
Learners will begin to chop ingredients and use knives for food preparation. Please be aware that sometimes sharper knives can be safer than blunt knives for chopping, as less force is necessary and they are less likely to slip or bounce off the food. Some recipes will require the use of a microwave to melt or heat ingredients. Adult supervision of knives, the microwave and hot ingredients is essential.
Some recipes will need baking in the oven. An adult must be responsible for placing the food in the oven, checking on it during cooking and taking it out when necessary.
Please ensure your learner has short sleeves, or close fitting long sleeves that will not get caught on equipment, long hair tied back and is wearing an apron or clothes that can be washed easily.
Please ensure you check all your ingredients for possible allergens. Recipes can be adapted for vegetarians.
Supply List
Ingredient and kitchen equipment lists will be posted in the classroom around a week before each class. I will email learners who sign-up after this time as they will not be able to see the prior classroom posts, please allow 24 hours after signing-up for the ingredient and kitchen equipment email to reach you. A recipe sheet will be shared the day before class. You may print this if you wish, or just follow along with the steps in class. We will be cooking a variety of recipes and they will need a range of kitchen equipment, frequently used items include - oven (adult use), microwave (adult supervision required), microwave safe bowls, baking tins and trays, mixing bowls, measuring jugs, weighing scales or measuring cups, spoons, knives, piping bags, piping nozzles, scissors and baking parchment.
