Bread Blossoms



When I am making kid-centric recipes this week, I thought of including some posts where kids can be involved as well. I had tried these blossoms years ago, from a parenting magazine I used to subscribe. Making these flower shaped snacks with kids can be a fun activity. It is quite easy to prepare these blossoms and kids can help in cutting and shaping the flowers into the muffin cups.

Method:
* Heat oven to 350 deg F.
* For each flower, you need a bread slice. Trim the crusts off bread. Cut each slice diagonally into quarters. And again cut them into half so that you end up with 8 triangles with each bread slice.


* Press 7 triangles around the sides of a mini muffin cup. Press the 8th triangle into the bottom. Lightly coat the bread slices with cooking spray.
* Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
* I have added nutella into the center of each flower cup. One can go with peanut butter and jam as well. Place them on plate with celery stalks.
