The sweet potato biscuits are the ones on the far right. I used a heart shaped cookie cutter, though any shape can be used.
Ingredients
Sweet Potato Dog Biscuits
4 oz pureed sweet potato baby food
¾ cup whole-wheat flour
¼ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 Tbsp maple syrup
1 large egg, beaten
Directions
Sweet Potato Dog Biscuits
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato, flour, oats, and maple syrup together. Press the dough into a ball and transfer to a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough 8-10 times.
Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to ¼-inch thickness. Cut the dough with a cookie cutter of your choice and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly brush the tops of the cookies with the beaten egg.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden and crisp.
Making your own homemade dog treats allows you to control the ingredients to ensure your pup is getting a nutritious snack without the unhealthy additives of commercial dog treats.
