This week in their topic lessons, Year 1 learnt that the Great Fire of London started in a bakery shop. This inspired them to have a go at baking themselves. They followed a recipe to make healthy raisin scones.

First they sieved the flour into a bowl, before rubbing in the butter with their fingertips.

Next they stirred in milk, vanilla essence and raisins.

Then they rolled out the dough and cut out the scones using a cutter.

After that they brushed the tops with milk and popped them in the oven.

Here are the finished scones!

Finally Year 1 tasted their scones and shared their thoughts.
