This recipe is from Bird Watcher's Digest. I prefer using peanut butter because it doesn't melt outdoors in the summertime like grease does and birds love it! Cooking time does not include overnight refrigeration. Ingredients:
2 cups melted peanut butter or 2 cups bacon grease or 2 cups other fat |
2 cups cornmeal or 2 cups stale dry cereal, blended into crumbs |
warm water |
2 -3 cups wild bird seed |
raisins or nutmeats or chopped peanuts |
Directions:
1. Slowly melt peanut butter, grease or fat over low heat.
2. Add cornmeal or stale cereal crumbs.
3. Slowly add enough warm water to make a stiff dough.
4. Add birdseed and raisins, nut meats or chopped peanuts.
5. Pack mixture into small foil pans or a large flat pan.
6. Refrigerate overnight.
7. Cut into pieces for tying onto tree branches.
