Kenzie's cooking -- again!

When I posted yesterday about the Monkey Bread Kenzie just made, I realized that I'd forgotten to post about the day she made the New York onion buns and an entire dinner.  Here are the pictures -- hope you don't get too hungry!!

 Kneading the bread.......

 for 10 minutes!  It's a long time!

 Almost done kneading.

 Forming the dough into bun-sized balls.

 On to dinner -- chopping an onion for the meatloaf.

 This requires some concentration!

 Cut up red-skinned potatoes, prepared meatloaf waiting to go in the oven, and chopping up fresh rosemary!
 The rolls after being topped with the onions and after rising -- ready for baking.

 The chef with her baked goods!

And the entire dinner, done by Mackenzie!!  Yummy!!

Bread baking success!

Kenzie and I are taking an on-line bread baking class.  Today was Kenzie's first attempt at making bread; she made a delicious honey-oatmeal bread.

 Mixing the dough.....

 ......and more mixing.

 Kneading the dough.

 Dough is kneaded, rolled into a ball, and ready for the first rise.

 After rising, Kenzie rolled it into a loaf shape....

 placed it in the pan, and allowed it to rise a second time.

 After the 2nd rise, look how big it  was!  Kenzie made slits on the top of the loaf, brushed it with egg white and sprinkled rolled oats on top.

 After baking, here was the final (delicious) product!!

And here's the very proud baker!  Great job, Kenzie!
