Cocinar y hornear con DeAnn: tartas y masas caseras (flexible, de 10 a 14 años)

** THIS IS A FLEX CLASS AND DOES NOT HAVE LIVE MEETINGS **

Students will learn how to make delicious homemade pies ... some of the most popular pies! Learners will also be taught to make their own pie crusts and talk about ways to add a personalized creative touch to their pies. 

Quick Class Schedule Overview: 
Week 1: Pumpkin Pie (Homemade Filling!) with a Homemade Single Pie Crust

Week 2: Fresh Apple Pie with a Double Pie Crust or Lattice Pie Crust (both crusts taught in videos) 

Week 3: Strawberries 'N Cream Pie with a Graham Cracker Crust

Week 4: Rich and Delicious Chocolate Silk Pie with a Single Baked Crust

During the first and second classes, learners will be taught tips and tricks for making pie crusts. They will make single and double pie crusts and then fill them with homemade pumpkin pie and apple pie fillings, making two of the best pies! 

During the third class, students will learn to make a homemade graham cracker crust and fill it with a strawberries and cream pie. This is an incredible variation of a strawberry pie. In the fourth class, students will make a rich and delicious chocolate silk pie in a homemade or prepared pie crust - your choice. This pie takes more time and is more involved, so parental help is encouraged.

Videos for each step of the pie-making process will be shown to help the learners easily follow along while making their pies and pie crusts. A list of supplies and ingredients will be sent out each week on Wednesdays (if your class starts on Saturday) or on Fridays (if your class starts on Monday) so you can plan and shop for any ingredients you might need. Photos of the ingredients and supplies will be included to help when shopping for ingredients. Recipes and instructional videos will be sent out early each Saturday/Monday morning (depending on the start day for your class) in preparation for the new week so you can make your pies at a time that works best for you. 

I will be available throughout the 4-week class for questions and comments and will do my best to respond quickly. 

Because this is a flex class, learners are encouraged to post weekly on the classroom page. I will ask questions about the pies, recipes, or pie-making process at the end of each week. Students should be prepared to share successes, as well things that might have been a struggle as they learned something new. Students will also be asked to share a photo with the class of at least 2 of their pies.

My class is a safe place to learn, grow, make mistakes, laugh together, feel confident, and find new ways to be successful. I want everyone to feel safe and happy while creating in the kitchen. Come make pies with me!
