Art Activities -- 3

We covered balloons with paper mache. Logan made a Scooby
Doo knight's mask. Delenn is going to make a piƱata.

We made apple muffins. They were AMAZINGLY good!

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups unbleached flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tblsp b powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground allspice
1/4 tsp ground cloves (I didn't have any so used pumpkin pie spice)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup walnuts (I didn't have any walnuts or pecans so just added an extra 1/2 cup of apples)
2 large eggs
4 Tblsp unsalted, melted butter
1 1/2 cup sour cream (I only had 1 cup and so added a bunch of milk to make the batter moist -- roughly 1/2 cup milk)
2 cups (2 apples) of cored/chopped tart apples

TOPPING: I used blended pecans, brown sugar, flour mixture I had on hand with a bit of butter. The recipe calls for 1/2 cup light brown sugar, 1/3 cup flour, 4 Tblsp butter

Directions -- combine dry ingredients. mix/blend wet ingredients together before adding to dry ingredients. Do NOT OVERMIX.

bake 375 for 20-25 minutes

LAST PICTURE: Delenn made a "lion mask"
