Ingredients
- 1/2 cup carrot, grated
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup rice flour
Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl add all the ingredients and mix well into a dough.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. You can use cookie cutters to create fun shapes for your dog's treats, or you can simply cut them into squares with a knife.
- Place the cut-out treats on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the treats are golden brown and crisp. Turn them over after 15 minutes baking. Keep an eye on them, as baking times can vary depending on your oven.
- Once the treats are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack. This allows them to harden further.
- Once the treats have cooled, store them in an airtight container to maintain their freshness. These treats can be kept for a couple of weeks, or you can freeze them for longer shelf life.
Substitutions
- Whole wheat flour instead of rice flour
- Grated apple instead of carrot
- Almond butter instead of peanut butter
