It seems the chocolate chip cookies made a big impression on Matthew. Everyday he asks to make cookies. Friday morning we got home from running a few errands and he wanted a cookie. Then he wanted to make some. Mom wasn't in the mood for cookies, but perhaps Matthew could learn to bake something besides cookies...like muffins!
We have a recipe for banana-strawberry muffins that we tried. Matthew got to mash the bananas while I cut up the strawberries. Matthew is used to tasting all the ingredients before adding them to the batter. Matthew wanted to try a strawberry. I gave him one. He continued eating strawberries (part of me is ok with this, at least he's eating something healthy). The practical side became concerned when he started eating strawberries faster than I could get them cut and we were coming down to the last few!
Hand over hand, Matthew and I measured all the ingredients. He even put the muffin papers in the pan and helped to fill them up.
