Baking Pies

We decided that we would like to bake our own pies - but fruit pies not bird pies like Mr Twit!




We collaborated in our groups to see what fruits we might use and we came up with apple and cinnamon, strawberry and lemon, mixed fruit and raspberry and blueberry.



We made the pies by placing some pastry on a pie tin first. Then we chopped the fruit and put it on top of the pastry. Next we sprinkled a little sugar on top of the fruit. Finally we placed some pastry on top of the fruit, brushed the top with milk and cut a few holes to let the steam escape.



Miss Kingsley kindly agreed to bake our pies in the school kitchen and she even brought them up to Room 9 in the afternoon! She said they smelt delicious!



Here we are about to tuck in!
