​As part of our Great Fire of London topic, Year 2 have been working hard as bakers today. The fire was believed to have started in Thomas Farriner’s bakery on Pudding Lane.
To make our bread buns, first we had to measure out the ingredients carefully using scales. Next we mixed them all together and added the water. We then kneaded the dough and our hands got very messy but it was great fun. Then we left the dough to prove. We were amazed how much it had risen in such a short time. After that we shaped our dough into rolls and let them prove again before we baked them.
At home time we saw our baked bread rolls for the first time and the smell was amazing! We couldn’t wait to taste them!
