Some of the crops that the ancient Egyptians grew were Barley, Flax, Leeks, Garlic, Beans, Grapes, Figs, Wheat, Onions, Dates, Pomegranates ect. Barley, flax and wheat were their main crops. Barley for making beer (beer was very popular), flax for weaving things such as thongs, baskets, ect. and wheat for bread which was the most common foods often eaten by peasants as it was a cheap and reliable source of food.

Egyptians grew crops like vegetables (onions, leek, beans etc), figs, wheat, barley, and I'm sure they grew a lot of corn too. They would grow fruit trees often to shade the crop, as well as giving fruit.
