Ingredients
Serves 12
2lbs hard vegetable fat or 2 lbs lard or 2 lbs suet
3cups bird seed (I buy the winter mix)
2cups peanut butter
1cup cornmeal (millet, quinoa or semolina can be substituted)
1cup oats
1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
1cup currants (or other dried fruits)
1cup cracked corn (optional)
Directions
-
01
In a large pan start melting the fat.
-
02
When almost melted, take off the heat, add the rest of the listed ingredients and mix well.
-
03
Let the mix cool enough for the seeds to be evenly distributed and not sink to the bottom.

04
Fill your molds, cool until set and un-mold.

IMPORTANT: Do not use old and used fat from your deep fryer because that is not good for the birds.
