My First Cookbook
Fun recipes to cook together . . . with as much mixing, rolling, scrunching, and squishing as possible!
From the creators of the #1 New York Times Bestseller The Complete Cookbook for Young Chefs, this collection of approachable and fun recipes is designed to introduce kids ages 5 to 8 to the kitchen, along with their grown-ups. It's not about getting dinner on the table, but about doing fun cooking projects together.
My First Cookbook will inspire the youngest chefs to enter the kitchen, empower them to cook, and engage their creativity--plus they'll have fun doing it. From simple after-school snacks like Yogurt and Berry Swirls and English Muffin Pizzas, to family meals like Cheese Pupusas and Rice Noodle Bowls, to holiday celebration recipes like Thanksgiving Biscuits and Chinese New Year Pork Dumplings, each beginner recipe is developed by the experts at America's Test Kitchen Kids before being kid-tested and kid-approved.
Some of the recipes you'll find inside:
Sheet Pan French Toast
Breakfast the whole family can get behind! Instead of dipping the bread in the custard mixture one slice at a time, we poured the custard into a rimmed baking sheet. For even soaking, after placing all the bread slices in the sheet pan kids then flipped each slice.
Firecracker Hot Dogs for Fourth of July
Today we celebrate the Fourth of July, also called Independence Day, with fireworks! We combine celebratory fireworks and hot dogs (a barbecue favorite) in this festive recipe!
S'Mores Rice Cereal Treats
For a fun twist on these classic treats, we combine chocolate chips and graham cracker pieces with our marshmallow-cereal mixture.
Pork Dumplings for Chinese New Year
Chinese dumplings you can make at home with your kids to celebrate Chinese New Year! Kids will have fun folding and pinching dumplings before cooking them with the help of their grown-ups!
