In this quick 25 minute, live class students will cook using examples from the teacher, learning how to make French Toast Pie. The teacher may pause her own cooking in order to properly assist students in the steps to complete their dishes. If this happens, the teacher will use videos and pictures of the process in order to show what the steps should look like.

This is a very basic beginner level cooking class. It is designed to teach students how to use common kitchen tools, give them practice measuring both dry and liquid ingredients, cleaning up as they go and confidence in themselves. We will be using the oven, so an adult will need to be available to assist learners to ensure they are safe.

We will prepare the dish and start the baking process during class, however the dish needs to bake for 25-30 minutes, so it will not be done baking until after class has ended. An adult will need to be present to assist in removing it from the oven.

A list of ingredients will be provided when you register for the class along with a kitchen tools and safety video. Students are **required** to view this video before attending class. If there are any possible allergy issues within the students home, please contact the teacher to discuss at least two days before the start of class.

Students are free to leave the classroom when their dish is completed so that they may enjoy their meal while it is fresh and hot. If more time is needed by students than class allows, parents should be prepared to assist students in completing their dishes.

This is a 🟡 Beginner cooking class.

🟢 Beginner to Intermediate classes are for students with some experience assisting an adult in the kitchen. This means that the student has assisted with mixing and simple cutting and possibly assisted in cooking ground meat.

🔵 Intermediate classes are for students with some experience in the kitchen, making simple dishes on their own (boxed macaroni & cheese, boxed cake mix, etc).

Class will focus on practicing basic and more advanced cooking techniques & ingredients, cooking different types of meat to proper doneness, more advanced multi-tasking along with kitchen safety.

This class requires the minimum number of learners enrolled in order to run the class. I will email adults one week prior to class if we have not met the minimum number of learners as a heads up. This will give both myself and the learner's adults the opportunity to promote the class as best we can. If the minimum number of enrollments is not met three days prior to class time, we will work together to make arrangements to transfer learners to different sections of the class or full refunds will be provided. Having a wide margin of time between possible cancelation and class time provides time for additional arrangements to be made to fill that space in the learner's day with other fun classes or activities.
