Birdseed Biscuits

We've always made an effort to bring the birds to our (very tiny) backyard. We've made pine cone and peanut butter treats many times but today made birdseed biscuits for our feathered friends. I found the idea and recipe in the February Family Fun magazine: mix together 3/4 cup birdseed, 1 tablespoon flour, and 2 tablespoons water. Spray metal cookie cutter with cooking oil and place it on a foil covered cookie sheet. Pack mixture into the cutter, inserting a straw near the top to make a hole for ribbon. Bake with straw in about 1 hour at 170 degrees. Here's our finished product. So cute! Hope the birds enjoy!

What a super cute idea! I haven't had a chance to read the magazine yet... we'll have to make one of these!

Keeping up with family and friends and posting lots of photos of Fletcher
