Rocking Robins
White or Whole Wheat Dough Recipe
- Roll a 2-2½-ounce piece of dough into a 12"-14" rope.
- Make a loop; put one end through center. The long end is the tail; the other end is the head. Place on greased baking sheet.
- For tail feathers, cut 4-5 slashes in the widest end and spread out. Shape the other end to resemble a head.
- With scissors, cut an opening for the beak; place a slivered almond inside beak. Clip holes for eyes and insert a small piece of raisin. Let rise until puffy. Beat together 1 egg and 1 tablespoon water for egg wash; brush on robins.
- Bake at 350°F, 17-20 minutes or until lightly browned.
