I have no idea where I found this recipe...I have this one and 3 others that I wrote down at the same time but did not record from where. The birds in VA seem to like this assortment. It does only work in the winter months though as too much sun will melt this suet cake.

Ingredients

  • lard (waste fat or rendered suet)2 cups
  • peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)1 cup
  • cornmeal1⁄2 cup
  • unsalted peanuts, chopped1⁄2 cup
  • hulled sunflower seeds1⁄2 cup
  • raisins1⁄2 cup
  • brown sugar1⁄2 cup

  2. 2

    Cook over low heat until melted.

  3. 3

    Stir in remaining ingredients.

    If needed, add enough water to make the product the consistency of oatmeal.

    Pour into a bread pan and cool.

    When cool, run a knife around the edges and pop suet out of pan.

  7. 7
