Easter Biscuit Baking

For Prison Fellowship Australia

The Challenge

To bake 75,000 homemade biscuits

 The Cause

To share God’s love with every inmate in Victoria this Easter 

 The Call

To bake and deliver nut-free biscuits to Plentylife on 22nd March 

PlentyLife has supported this opportunity for ministry and connection for a number of years and are doing so again in 2026.

You can either bake on your own, or bake with others and host an Easter Biscuit Bake!
Below you will find some recipe ideas, tips on hosting a biscuit bake, and some key things to remember. 

Biscuits will be collected at Plentylife on the morning of Sunday 22nd March.

Recipes

Here are some suggestions, plus a tried and tested recipe for ANZAC biscuits!

Please note that biscuits must be crisp, not moist or crumbly AND nut-free (no peanut butter, almond meal, nutella etc.)

Gluten Free biscuits are needed as well.

Packaging

Please package your biscuits in sealed disposable containers, clearly labelled with ingredients and the number of biscuits in each container.

  • sealed disposable containers: You won’t get your container back, so large ice-cream containers are perfect. A call will go out for donations of ice cream containers and these will be available at church if you need them. 

  • index cards: will be available to clearly label containers if you need them

Delivery

Bring them to Plentylife, ready for delivery to the Prison Fellowship packing team, on Sunday 22nd March.

Hosting a Biscuit Bake?

  • Plan a time: a morning, afternoon or evening before the 22nd March

  • Invite: your neighbours, friends, a couple of families, your children’s friends to cook biscuits with you
  • Share: about the work of Prison Fellowship and pray for this initiative to shine the love of Jesus in prisons this Easter!
