Treat the kids to some fun this Easter by letting them make some Easter ornaments. This is a very simple recipe that is easy to make and is very low in allergens so is great for kids with allergies or coeliacs. For coeliacs or kids with wheat allergies you can substitute the plain flour for a gluten free all purpose flour such as Orgran all purpose flour to make gluten free dough. This is a great recipe and fun especially for those kids that are allergic to eggs. These kids cannot do the traditional egg painting as even slight contact with an egg can set off a reaction.
Go on and make these Easter ornaments with the kids for the dinner table, to hang in a window or on a tree. Don't forget this dough is NOT edible...make it nice and bright or Easter pastel shades, also divide dough into 2-3 batches and do lots of colours.
Ornaments
Ingredients:
2 cups plain flour or for Coeliacs/wheat allergies use Orgrans Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
1 cup salt
1 cup water
Food Colouring coloured to your childs liking...or children can paint the plain dough after baking.
Paper clips or skewers
1. Mix flour, water and salt together until smooth but stiff, separate dough and mix in colours (or leave plain).
2. Roll out with a rolling pin and cut out EASTER letters or Easter designs such as carrots, eggs, ducks, chicks or rabbits.
3. Push a paper clip into the top of ornament so they can be hung up. If the hole closes after baking it can be quickly re-opened by using a skewer or chopstick to widen the hole.
4. Bake at 160oC for 2 hrs or until hard. Cool and paint.
Have a happy Easter.
