Ingredients
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 cups oat flour
- 1 large egg
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Beat the egg. This is to be shared between the two doughs.
- Blend the blueberries to a puree.
- In one mixing bowl, add the blueberry puree, half the egg and 1/2 cup oat flour.
- In another mixing add the pumpkin puree, half the beaten egg and the remaining oat flour.
- Mix the two separate doughs. If the dough is too moist, add more oat flour.
- Take small portions of each dough and roll them into long, thin ropes (about ¼-inch thick and 5-6 inches long).
- Take one rope of each dough and gently twist them around each other to create a spiral effect. Lightly press the ends to secure the shape.
- Place the twisted treats on the prepared baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes until firm.
- Let the treats cool before serving them to your pup.
Substitutions
- Use whole wheat flour if your dog tolerates grains
- Replace pumpkin with sweet potato puree
