5 Faith-Based Easter Snack Ideas for Kids
Crown of Thorns Rolls and Pretzel Wreath
Use a pack of refrigerated bread dough or canned Pillsbury breadsticks, pretzel sticks and an egg.
You cut the dough into 3 ropes and braid them together, then arrange into a “crown”. Brush the top of the bread with a beaten egg. Bake according to dough package instructions.
When done, poke pretzel stick “thorns” into the bread crown. Delicious to eat while still warm.
This is a wonderful visual of the crown of thorns placed on Jesus’ head before He was crucified.
Resurrection Rolls
