The time for decorating indoor trees may be over, but if you are still in the tree decorating mood,
why not encourage birds to visit your yard by hanging a homemade birdseed biscuit!
What You Will Need
3/4 cup of birdseed
1 tablespoon flour
Water
Cookie cutter
Oil
Foil
Cookie sheet
Straw
Ribbon
What To Do
- Mix together the birdseed, flour, and 2 tablespoons of water.
- Spray or wipe a cookie cutter with oil and place it on a foil-covered cookie sheet.
- Pack the mixture into the cutter, inserting half a straw near the top to create a hole for hanging.
- Bake the biscuit (with the straw) in a 170º oven until the biscuit is hard, about one hour.
- Let it cool.
- Remove the straw, thread a ribbon through the hole, and hang it outside in a sheltered spot.
