Our backyard birds have been enjoying the seed and suet cakes. We have been getting plenty of birds on video for our weekly episodes of The Lake Hills City Birds. Below is the recipe for the Bird Suet Cakes.
Ingredients
1 cup of Lard or Suet 1 cup crunchy peanut butter 2 cups ground corn meal 2 cups quick or rolled oats 1/3 – 1/4 cup sugar 1 cup bird seed 1 cup dried fruit
Directions
1. In a large pot over medium low heat melt the lard and peanut butter. 2. Once melted turn off heat. Then mix in the remaining ingredients. 3. Pour into a mold or a pan. 4. Refrigerate or freeze until hardened. 5. If you used a pan, cut suet into sizes to fit in suet cages and let your birds enjoy.
My name is Chastity. I started a Blog because a lot of people would rather have the recipes on a website than pull it up on YouTube. This site started out to basically be a recipe site. In recent years we've added a few extras, such as gardening, DIY projects, and backyard birdwatching. Thanks to my sister for helping me get this Blog up and going. I will link the video, if available, for each post.
So, a little about me. I’m a dog lover if you can’t tell. The top photo was taken on Bobbi Jo’s first day with us. We were introducing her to the pack. My husband is also a dog lover. We have 5 rescue dogs. Jackson was added to the pack in September 2021. We didn’t rescue these dogs; they rescued us. I’m a Christian who enjoys cooking, gardening, nature, and photography.
