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

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F
  2. Peel, slice, and boil your orange OR purple sweet potato in water for 15 minutes. Mash with a fork and set aside.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Bake for 22-25 minutes. Treats will be firm and slightly browned on the bottom. Allow to fully cool before serving.
  6. 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.
