Ingredients

45 mins
40 servings
  1. 2 boxJiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  2. 3 tbspBaking Powder
  3. 2eggs
  4. 4jars baby food (carrots, sweet potatoes, squash..any that are high in vitamin A)
  5. 3/4 cupChunky Peanut Butter
  6. 1 cupdry Baby Cereal (whatever flavor has lowest % of iron) I use Rice Flavored
  7. 1 cupBird Pellets, I use parakeet sized but any size will do
  8. 1 1/2 cupShredded Zucchinni

Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    Mix all ingredients in large bowl. Batter will be hard to mix as it is thick and no extra liquid is added. If it's too thick you could use a few tablespoons of water, but it's not usually necessary.

  2. 2

    Spread into a 9x13 pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray.

  3. 3

    Bake in a 400°F oven for 35-40 minutes or until set.

  4. 4

    Cool on a wire rack. Cut into small servings and put into 1 week batches into freezer bags. Freeze what your not going to use right away. As you need more pull a bag out of the freezer and let it defrost in the fridge overnight.

  5. 5

    To serve..use straight from fridge, or let warm up to room temp.

  6. 6

    This bread is not meant to be a mainstay diet for your bird. Use this bread as a TREAT!

  7. 7

    A helpful tip.. any size bird pellets would work, I use the small ones because I had a varied size of birds in my flock and I wanted a bread that even the small birds could eat. If you don't want to use pellets omit the pellets and add an additonal cup of baby cereal.

  8. 8

    I got the original recipe idea from Bobbi Brinker on the Birds N Way website 14 years ago. I adapted this recipe to my birds taste. Kya is my African Grey Parrot and this is her favorite Birdie Bread recipe.
