For our sensory activity this month we’re bringing you an amazing edible playdough recipe. I’ve been wanting to make this peanut butter playdough for a while now, and am excited to share! It is actually super easy to make.
Don’t forget to check out our other taste safe sensory doughs here.
Edible Playdough Recipe (Peanut Butter) Ingredients
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey (honey should not be given to children under age 1)
Instructions
Mix the honey and peanut butter together in a bowl then add 1/2 cup of powdered sugar and mix. After it is mixed well, add the rest of the powdered sugar and finish mixing. If your kids are anything like mine, they will want to help with this process as well. There you have it – your edible playdough recipe!
TIP: If your mix comes out too dry, add a little bit of olive oil to make it more rollable.
Roll out the edible playdough recipe mixture and play with as usual!
The Results
Two of my children still like to taste their sensory play items and this one made a lovely surprise for them. I think they were nibbling on this playdough more than they were playing with it (LOL)!
I went with a free play idea and gave some number stamps. Before I knew it the kids were eating numbers from this edible playdough recipe.. hehe!
As far as playdough preferences goes I love this peanut butter edible playdough recipe and its consistency. The mixture makes a good size ball of playdough to play with and is edible which appeals to my kids who are younger or have sensory seeking needs.
The recipe will most likely last 2 or 3 days since it is all fresh ingredients and the children are handling it with their hands.
This is my top choice for an edible playdough recipe.

Thanks for sharing! Does it keep long?

Since this recipe is fresh, it would only last 2-3 days. Would not eat it past that 🙂 Enjoy!
