Ingredients
Blueberry-Apple-Mint Dog Treats
½ cup apple-blueberry puree baby food
¼ cup apple, grated
¼ cup blueberries, chopped
2 Tbsp mint leaves, finely chopped
¼ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1⅓ cup whole wheat flour
1 large egg
1½ Tbsp honey
Directions
Blueberry-Apple-Mint Dog Treats
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients. Mix well with a spoon, and then knead the dough together with your fingers until incorporated. (If the dough is sticky, add a little bit more flour.)
Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to about ¼-inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes and place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for about 24-26 minutes, or until crispy and golden, rotating the pan halfway through baking. Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool completely before giving to your dog.
