 We love finding new ways to celebrate holidays like Easter with our children that help them better understand the true meaning behind the holiday. We had never heard of resurrection biscuits until a new “e-friend” told The Lucky Wife about them during the online Ultimate Blog Party recently. They are now a new Easter family tradition for us.
, to help explain, as it is familiar to our 4-year-old. This book has won The Gold Medallion Book Award and has beautiful illustrations.
Yield: 4 biscuits
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuits
- large marshmallows
- spray margarine
- cinnamon (to taste)
- sugar (to taste)
- Take half of the biscuits and press each one into a flat circle on a baking sheet or bar pan.
- Place one marshmallow in the center on top of each flattened biscuit.
- Take remaining biscuits, flatten each one, and place one at a time over each of the marshmallows, pinching the edges of the two biscuits together all the way around the marshmallow.
- Spray the biscuits with margarine (we brushed some of the Earth Balance buttery spread over each one instead) and sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar over each one.
- Bake at 325 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

I’m not sure if eating something that looks like a cave someone was entombed in is my idea of “celebrating”. Interesting!

I get your point but for us the picture of the resurrection that the “empty tomb” it shows is the celebration … a great reminder that we serve the One who conquered death and all evil. That’s where the “celebration” comes in for us, but everyone has their own ideas and we respect that.
It also helps to teach children in a way that helps them begin to understand the very abstract concept.
That’s a fun way to teach a lesson. Kids learn with hands-on things like this too. Very nice.

I would have never thought to use cinnamon and sugar with marshmallows, sadly only thought about chocolate. That is such a neat way to teach the children, especially if they got to help make them.
