2 Workbooks (provided the week before class) Ruler String 6 cups (900 grams) Frozen or fresh blueberries (thawed) 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp (125 grams) Sugar, divided 1/4 cup Cornstarch Zest of 1 Lemon 2 tbsp lemon juice 1 tbsp Neutral oil, like coconut Pie dough (your favorite recipe or store bought)
Since we will be using the oven parents should supervise learners. Hot pies and ovens should be handled cautiously. The pie ingredients do not contain allergens such as soy, nuts, or dairy. However when purchasing or making your own pie dough you should note that there are vegan and non-vegan options. Finally, the pie is not meant to be consumed by one person, so learners should share the pie when they are done in the class with their household.
