That crisp feel of Fall is just around the corner and the apple trees are ready for it. We’re just beginning to harvest bucket fulls of fresh apples and want to share our favorite Apple Crisp recipe with you!

In this hands on cooking class you’ll learn our tricks to making the crisp tart and yet so decadent, how to prep it ahead of time to make for easy hosting, plus you’ll get to create your own to bring home and bake whenever you’re ready.

Each guest will receive their own Red La Tauci ceramic pie dish to make their apple crisp in. We’re thrilled to be able to give each of our guests a piece of red bakeware to bring home to continue making your own Red Tin Treats!

We’ll begin the workshop sampling the apple crisp we’ll be making, along with our favorite Thumb Print Scones. Then we’ll dive in to the fun. Kelly will talk you thru the entire process from the best thickness of apples for crisp, to all of the ingredients for the crumble topping. Then you’ll get your hands busy making your own.

We cannot wait to welcome you into the orchard and our kitchen as we bake and welcome Fall together!

All The Details:

• This hands on cooking class will last for about 2 hours

• Each guest will be given their own Red La Tauci Pie Plate

• We do ask that each guest bring their own : peeler, cutting board and knife

• Bring your favorite apron too! We have quite a selection to choose from that you are welcome to use but it’s always fun to see everyone decked out in their favorite aprons.

• Weather permitting, this class will be held in the Orchard. If by chance the weather is wet and cold, the class will be moved into our main room.

All details for this class will be emailed to you once your ticket purchase is completed.

Let’s bake up some Fall Red Tin Treats Together! I’ll teach you how to make 2 of our favorites, Pumpkin Bread and Molasses Krinkles.

The Red Tins are eternally full in the Fall because baking and filling the house with the sweet smell of spices is one of my all time favorites. We’ll start out making a batch of Pumpkin Bread so there will be enough for us to enjoy as well as some for each of you to take home.

While the pumpkin bread is baking we’ll mix up a batch of Molasses Krinkles. I’ll show you the tricks to getting them to ‘Krinkle’ just right and before you leave we’ll bake a batch for us to enjoy and then I’ll send you home with dough so you can make them fresh, filling your own homes with the sweet smells of baking cookies.

You’ll leave with fresh baked Pumpkin Bread, Molasses Krinkle dough and the recipes to bake them again and again!
