Halloween is right around the corner, so here are some fun Halloween treat recipes that you can make your dog to enjoy in the festivities.
Halloween Biscuits
Ingredients:
-
1 1/4 cup of Oat Flour (Make your own by blending old fashioned oats in a food processor)
-
1/4 cup of Unsweetened Applesauce
-
2 tbsp of Peanut Butter (No Xylitol as it is toxic to dogs. Aim for single ingredient peanut butter)
-
3/4 cup of mashed Purple or Orange Sweet Potato
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- Peel, slice, and boil your orange OR purple sweet potato in water for 15 minutes. Mash with a fork and set aside.
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and thoroughly combine. Refrigerate the dough for 10-15 minutes if you’re using cookie cutters. This will make it much easier to roll out and cut into shapes.
- Roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness and use your Halloween-themed cookie cutters to cut out shapes. Lay shapes on a parchment lined baking sheets. These do not spread while baking, so you can place them close together.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes. Treats will be firm and slightly browned on the bottom. Allow to fully cool before serving.
- Follow the recipe through again using your other purple or orange sweet potato if you’re making two colors. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 7-10 days.
