Recipe for Homemade Apple Bread

It's the fall season, so it's time for the apple harvest.  There are many great recipes with apples, and here is one I have for my Homemade Apple Bread.

Ingredients

1 cup of flour (either traditional or oat flour)

1/2 a cup of milk

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon maple syrup

1 apple 


Instructions:

Get a bowl and put the flour and milk into it.  I personally prefer to use oat flour.  Add the salt and maple syrup.  You can add more syrup if you would like it to taste sweeter.  Stir the flour and milk until it becomes thick dough.  Take the apple and slice it into small pieces.  Add it to the dough.  Then, put some oil in a frying pan and set the stove to medium heat.  Wait a minute or two for the pan to heat up.  Add the dough and apple mix to the pan.  Take a spatula and press it down into the pan.  Every two minutes flip the dough mix until it begins to turn light brown.  Do this until the bread has a crispy texture on the outside and is soft on the inside.  When it is finished, put it on a plate to cool down.  Enjoy your apple bread with either coffee or milk.  Delish!  


Vocabulary:

1. dough: a mixture of flour and water/milk

2. frying pan: used to cook things on a stove

3. heat up: become warmer 

4. harvest: the time of year when the fruits or vegetables are picked to be sold and eaten 


Questions:

1.      What is your favorite food with apples? 

 

2.      What food do you have to heat up?

 

3.      What fruits or vegetables are grown in your country?  When is the harvest for them? 

 

4.      What food do you press down when you are cooking it?

Swim Meet 1, 4th Annual Orange LionHeart Classic

Image
By Nate Feldman   Today was my first official U.S. Master's Swim Meet.  Master's swim meets are for adults who want to continue competitive swimming after high school and university.   I swam in the one-mile, or 1650 yard, freestyle swim race at the 4th annual Orange LionHeart Classic at the High Plains Community Center swimming pool.  I completed the race in 34:19.  While this is not a super fast time, it is much faster than the 40 minute speed I predicted. There were many things I liked about this race.  The people both running and swimming at the event were very supportive and friendly.  I had very nice conversations with Don, Doug, and Tracy, fellow swimmers.  There were two local high school swimmers, who were timing people, who were incredibly encouraging.   All in all, it was a great experience, and I hope to swim at this event again. The pool where the race took place

Oatmeal and Waffles, Quiz

  Comparison Essay: Oatmeal and Waffles (Including: intense, establish, extended family, observe) Breakfast traditions can vary greatly depending on culture, lifestyle, and personal preference. However, when we observe morning routines across different regions, two foods—oatmeal and waffles—frequently appear on the table. Although both are familiar breakfast choices, they offer contrasting experiences in taste, nutrition, and the meanings people may establish around them. Oatmeal is made by cooking oats in water or milk until they become a warm, creamy porridge. Its flavor is mild rather than intense, but it can easily be enriched with fruit, nuts, or spices. Because oats are high in fiber and contain slow-releasing carbohydrates, oatmeal provides steady energy throughout the morning. Many people, including members of large or extended family households, rely on oatmeal because it is affordable, nutritious, and easy to prepare in bigger portions. For these reasons, oatmeal is of...
