Cali has been home this whole week with strep throat. Her first illness! (Other than the common cold). Anyway…a couple of days ago we made this bear bread. They actually went from bears to looking more like elephants after baking. Strep be poo-poo’d…Cali ate all three of them. All of them. I got nothing.

Way too super easy. Recipe following the pics.

THREE BEARS BREAD

The Night Before:
*Put a pound of frozen bread dough in the fridge to thaw.

Before You Begin:
* Wash your hands.
* Spray 2 baking sheets with veg. oil spray.
* Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

1) Use half the dough to make three bears’ bodies.
2) Use half of the remaining dough to make the bears’ heads.
3) Use the remaining dough to make the bear’s legs, arms, ears and noses. Add raisin eyes.
4) Cover bears with a clean, lightweight towel. Put them in a warm place until they’ve doubled in size (60-90 minutes).
5) Bake bears for 16-18 minutes or until golden brown.
6) Grab a bear and run for the sun before your kid scarfs ‘em all down and you get nothin’.
