Apple Bacon Dog Treats
Yield 18-20 treats
INGREDIENTS
- 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 2/3 cup oat flour
- 1/3 cup wheat germ
- 2/3 cup whole wheat flour
- ¼ cup ground pumpkin seeds
- 1 tbsp. ground flax seeds
- 2 cups carrots, roughly chopped
- 1 apple, cored and sliced
- ½ cup natural peanut butter
- 2 chicken bouillon cubes
- 1 tbsp. honey
- 1 egg
- 3-4 pieces of cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 tbsp. bacon grease (optional)
- 1/4 cup cream cheese (optional)
- 1 tbsp. chocolate free sprinkles (optional)
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together rolled oats, oat flour, wheat germ, whole wheat flour, ground pumpkin seeds, and ground flax seeds.
- Add carrots and apples to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until smooth. Add peanut butter, bouillon cubes, honey, egg, bacon, and bacon grease (if using) and pulse until well combined. With the food processor running, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until a thick dough forms.
- Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Roll the dough between two sheets of plastic wrap until it is about ¼ inch thick. Press a dog bone shaped cookie cutter into the dough and transfer each cookie to the prepared cookie sheets. I also made some smaller treats for training using a small circular cookie cutter.
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden in color. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- Once cool you can optionally ice the treats with cream cheese and sprinkle the tops with chocolate free sprinkles. (Great for special occasions)
- Serve at room temperature.
Note: stored in a sealed container or cookie jar the treats will last about one week. The cookies can also be frozen for future use.
