Focaccia

Focaccia is soooo fun to make esp with kids. I love getting my kids involved in cooking. The younger you get them cooking, the more love they have for it and want to do it. I started my son off at 4 years old.. today he LOVES to cook. I did not do the same with my daughter and she is really not into cooking. So, I decided any children we have going forward, their little butts will be cooking. Anytime my nieces or nephews are over, we cook together (bread, pizza, biscuits, whatever).  You Will Need: 4 Cups Bread Flour (King Arthur) 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Sugar (honey or agava)  1.5 tsp Yeast 1 tbsp Oil (olive or avocado) 1 3/4 Cups Warm Water  Bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

Fluffy Waffles

Kristopher and Kailee absolutely love waffles, (yes we used to buy frozen ones until I discovered how easy it was to make them homemade and freeze yourself!) We go through so many waffles monthly, and pancakes it absolutely ridiculous! But, I see no reason to hold them back when I know exactly what is in the waffles, and how much sugar is in them. Let's make some waffles and let's freeze them for a fast and easier breakfasts' before school or even work!
You Will Need:
2 1/2 Cups Milk
2 tbsp Butter, melted
2 Eggs, separated
2 tsp Baking Powder
2 tsp Salt
2 tbsp Agave
2 tbsp Vanilla
3 1/2 Cups Flour
1 Cup Chocolate Chips, or Blueberries
In a deep glass bowl, add flour, salt, baking powder, and stir together, set aside.
Add milk, melted butter, egg yolks, and whisk together
It is okay to leave it 'lumpy', if you over mix this then it will not turn out fluffy
In a separate bowl, whisk egg whites to stiff peaks... fold into the waffle batter mix; GENTLY! 
I divided the batter, chocolate chip (for Kristopher), blueberry (for Kailee) and plain (for myself and Daniel). Lightly butter your waffle iron, and place enough batter in according to your waffle iron. Cook until green light shows.. 
Chocolate chip all in it's yummy, beautiful glory!! Can you taste it?! This recipe is super simple, super easy to remember and def must have! I take these and pop them in the fridge for 3 days, they are gone! But you can freeze them for longer. Place on baking sheet, pop in freezer, freeze completely then zip-lock, date and label and you are done.
