Healthy Eating



Our class have been investigating healthy eating. We have looked at packaged lunch items to see if they got the healthy food tick by checking the amount of sugar, fat and sodium in each serving as well as the kilojoules. We have discussed what sort of foods are good.
Last week the Yr 6's made Apple Scones this is how we made them.
Apple Scones

Ingredients: Wholemeal Flour, White Flour, Grated apple, Cinnamon, Sugar, Margarine and Milk.


Method:

Step 1. Put 1 cup of White flour and 2 cups of Wholemeal flour into a bowl.

Step 2. Rub 2 tablespoons of butter into the flour then add 2 tablespoons of Sugar.

Step 3. Make a well in the middle and add 1 cup of milk and 1 grated apple.

Step 4. Mix together until it is doughy then place mixture onto a floured board the knead lightly.

Step 5. Press out to form a square or rectangle then cut into even sized squares.

Step 6. Place on a baking tray then bake at 220 for 10 minutes.
After we had finished cooking them we had one each and gave the rest to the teachers.
This is what the Yr 6's said about them.
Ally: They were yuck.
Denim: They were alright.
Eru: They were yum with margarine.
