Ingredients:

Serving

2 lbs hard vegetable fat or 2 lbs lard or 2 lbs suet
3 cups bird seed (i buy the winter mix)
2 cups peanut butter
1 cup cornmeal ( millet , quinoa or semolina can be substituted)
1 cup oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup currants (or other dried fruits)
1 cup cracked corn (optional)

Directions:

In a large pan start melting the fat.
When almost melted, take off the heat, add the rest of the listed ingredients and mix well.
Let the mix cool enough for the seeds to be evenly distributed and not sink to the bottom.
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.
