Friday’s Frugal Feast: Resurrection Buns
We started making these Easter goodies a few years ago. I got the recipe from a friend, but I can’t remember whom. (Sorry, friend!) It’s fun to put these together on Friday or Saturday night and eat them for breakfast Easter Morning.
Resurrection Buns
- Grands size Biscuits
- Marshmallows
- Butter
- Cinnamon
- Sugar
Roll the biscuit out until it’s about 5 inches across. Spread the butter on top with a pastry brush, and sprinkle on the cinnamon and sugar. The spices represent the spices used to anoint Jesus’ body before His burial.
Place Jesus (the marshmallow) on the biscuit. White represents purity and the sinless life that Jesus led.
Fold the sides of the biscuit up around the marshmallow and close it up on top to make the tomb. You may need to place a little water on the edges as you close them to get a good seal. Put more butter, sugar and cinnamon on top.
Place on a baking sheet with a lip, because the marshmallows will seep out.
Bake according to the biscuit packages instructions.
When your children eat them they will find the tomb is empty! Jesus has risen! Happy Easter.
Do you have any traditional Easter recipes?
