  4. Small 2018 01 22 194659 img 3506

    Separate the dough into 12 balls and then shape into little bear heads with one large ball for the middle and two small balls on top for ears.

    Use honey to stick the black olives to the top of your buns like eyes.

    Then add a dried cranberry for the nose.
