Program Description
Event Details
Join us for a joyful and interactive cooking class designed for preschoolers and their grown-ups! In this fun-filled session, little chefs will team up with their adults to make warm, fluffy Banana Pancakes from scratch. Children will crack eggs, mash ripe bananas, and mix up a simple batter—building confidence and coordination along the way. Together, you'll also create a naturally sweet Raspberry Chia Seed Jam, a colorful topping that adds a pop of flavor to your pancakes. This class is a perfect way to bond, learn basic kitchen skills, and enjoy a delicious breakfast made with love! Recipe is nut-free and vegetarian but will contain dairy, eggs, and gluten.
