Carrot and Cheese Cookies for Dogs Recipe
Ingredients
¾ cup of whole-wheat flour
¾ cup of unbleached all purpose flour
1 tablespoon of dried grated cheese
¼ lb of lean ground beef, cooked and minced
1 small carrot, peeled and grated
A pinch of garlic powder
1 egg
¼ cup of chicken broth
Preparation
- Place the oven rack in the center of the oven and pre heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place 1 slightly greased baking sheet on the side.
- Use a large bowl and a wire whisk to mix the whole-wheat flour, the unbleached all-purpose flour, cheese, and cooked beef, carrots and garlic powder together.
- Use a separate smaller bowl to beat the egg with an electric mixer on medium speed until it is foamy, and then beat the chicken broth in it.
- Next, blend both the dry and wet preparation together with a spoon or use your hand until it becomes a soft dough and starts to pull away from the bowl it is in. If it is too dry add a teensy bit more broth to it.
- Slightly flour a flat surface and turn the dough onto it. Use a rolling pin to roll it out to ½ inch of thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out the cookies shapes (whatever shape your dog likes) and make sure to reuse the scraps as you go. You will notice that the dough will become stiffer as you work it.
- Put the cookies on the set aside prepared baking sheet and place them in the oven. Bake for around 18 to 20 minutes or until the cookies have acquired a golden brown color and look dry. Then remove them from the oven and place the tray over a rack and allow the cookies to cool completely. Turn the oven off.
- Once the cookies have cooled, put them back inside the warm oven and allow them to sit in there undisturbed without opening the oven door for 10 to 15 hours straight.
