Cinnamon Craters

This is a super easy recipe that I learned a long time ago in a home economics class. Probably around 5th grade. I love that it is easy enough for my kids to actually make on their own.

When baking with kids, it really helps to set everything up beforehand: ingredients, bowls, measuring cups, etc. It will not only save time, but also help keep them focused, and most important: keep the mess limited to one place. :)

Cinnamon Craters
1 cup flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup sugar
4 tbsp vegan butter
1/2 cup soy milk

filling
2 tbsp vegan butter
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Preheat oven to 425ºF. Mix the flour, baking powder and sugar in a bowl. Add vegan butter and mix until crumbly. Add soy milk and combine. The dough will be sticky. Try not to add too much flour, but rather add some flour to your hands while handling it. Divide into 12 balls, place on baking sheet, and press down the center with finger.

Cream together all the ingredients for the filling, and add a small amount into each "crater."

Bake for 6-8 minutes.
