Apple Volcanoes- Kids Kitchen Review

So I Reviewing my Barefoot Product "Kids Kitchen Card Deck". You can find the deck here http://store.barefootbooks.com/kids-kitchen.html/?bf_affiliate_code=000-0s2c

I going to try a few recipe the next several day. 

Today we tried Apple Volcanoes mmmm.

I loved them. Emmaleigh (1yrs) loved them. Trever (5yr) was ok. He like the idea, he tasted and said it was good but didnt want anymore, but he very very picky. 

So here the recipe (we changed it up a bit since we didn't have or couldn't find everything plus we only made two apples but I am posting the Recipe for 4.)

Things you need


4 small cooking apples
3 apricots ( we only a large mango so that what we used)
1/2 cup raisins
1/3 cup rolled oats or granola
1 tablespoon of honey
2 tablespoons butter
4 Marshmallows (or a lot of small ones)


Cutting board
Vegatable knife
Apple Corer( we dont have one but this would be very helpful
Fork
Ovenproof Baking Dish 
Mixing Bowl and damp cloth/no skid surface
Wooden spoon

1)Preheat oven to 350F

2) Cut a thin slice off the base of the apples so that it sits Flat. ( i recommend this even if it sit up already since once you fill it get a little heavy)

3) Use an apple Corer to remove the core. Make sure the whole is big enough to fill. Take a  fork and make four pricks around the side of each apple. Put them on prepared backing Dish.

( we cute are center out with a knife so it not the prettiest)

4) cut the apricots( mango in our case) into small pieces and put them in mixing bowl. Put damp cloth underneath to prevent from sliding or just put bowl on non skid surface.

5) Add the Raisins, oats or granola, and honey in the mixing bowl. 

6) Mix all  together with wooden spoon. Using your find, stuff the mixture down the hole in the apples, working from the top. Divide the mixture evenly between apples.  

7) Put butter on top of each apple

8) Bake the apples for 25 minutes or until they are soft when you insert a knife into them. Carefully place marshmallows on top of each apple and bake another 2 minutes. The Marshmallow should Erupt.

And here are finish Apple Volcano. We didn't leave enough room to put the marshmallows inside so the kind of just erupted down the side

*Microwave Directions- prepare the same. Cook 3 minutes then check. Once cooked allow to stand 2 minutes apples still are cooking once removed from the microwave.

Trever Tasting his.
