Featherhead Fruit Cakes (Homemade Suet Blocks)



I can't say there's really an original recipe for this one, but after going through this page I took a few things from each to make my own: http://www.sialis.org/suet.htm

1 Stick of Crisco (About 1 C, can also use Lard)
1 C Crunchy Peanut Butter (Creamy is okay, but crunchy adds peanuts)
1 C Frozen Fruit (Blackberries, Blueberries, Strawberries, etc)
1 C Chopped Dried Fruit (Raisins, Currents, Dates, Cranberries, Cherries, etc)
1 C Old Fashioned Oatmeal
1 C Natural Cereal (Grapenuts, Corn Flakes, Puffed Riced, Cracked Wheat, Chex)
1 C Bird Seed
Cornmeal
Whole Wheat Flour

Melt Crisco, Peanut Butter, and Frozen Fruit in a pan until completely combined.

Meanwhile, in another pan mix dried fruit, oatmeal, cereal, and bird seed in a large bowl.

When peanut mixture is completely, transfer to the large bowl. Mix well. Add enough cornmeal and whole wheat flour, 1/2 c at a time, until mixture resembles thick cookie dough.

Pat down into your largest GLASS lasagna pan. Pack pack pack! and then PACK SOME MORE! The more you pack it, the better it will stay in a block.

Chill in fridge over night. Cut into blocks to accommodate your feeder. Wrap individual blocks in foil and store in zip-lock bags in the freezer.
