Pie Blog
In the pie unit we make apple pie fold overs, pumpkin pie, pop tarts and pin wheel cookies. When making the pie crust you had to cut the butter into the four. We’ve done this before in class so I thought that as a group it progressively became easier. For the apple filling, we cut up all the apples and then mixed together the cinnamon and other ingredients. The problem that we can into when making the filling was we didn’t use that large of a pan so it took longer for them to become cooked all the way through and we had to stir very carefully so they didn’t spill out. When we rolled out the pie crust dough we had to roll it between to two pieces of saran wrap to create a circle shape. When making the pumpkin pie we had to flout the crust, so after placing the dough in the tin we pinched the dough so that in the end it almost looked like a sun. For the pop tarts, the filling that I used was the caramel squares for one and chocolate chips and marshmallows in the other. In both pop tarts the ingredients melted but the puff kept its shape. For the pin wheel cookies we just rolled out our dough and then sprinkled cinnamon and sugar and then rolled the dough into a long log and cut up the log then baked them. I enjoyed this unit because I liked learning about all the different things that you can do with pie crust, it wasn’t an easy process but I had a lot of fun doing it.
