This is healthy dog ​​behavior Easy to make And that’s full of ingredients Good for your dog. This behavior helps Freshen the breath, improves skin and coat health, and is packed with fiber and nutrients your dog needs. best yet, Dogs love them!!

I like to make dog treats at home because store bought treats can be so expensive and full of questionable ingredients and preservatives. Homemade dog treats are easy to make, and my dog ​​loves them. In fact, the dog treat recipes I’ve posted over the years have gone somewhat viral and are some of the most popular recipes on my blog! Time to congratulate Chhola for her food critic skills. He’s actually a very picky dog ​​and doesn’t even like most store-bought treats (homemade isn’t always the best)? And our pets deserve the best!

I’ve already shared recipes for Homemade Sweet Potato Dog Chews, Pumpkin and Peanut Butter Dog Treats, and my Easy Homemade Dog Treats (which only contain bananas, peanut butter, and oats). This time I wanted to share a new snack recipe that contains natural ingredients that are very healthy for our dogs. Although these treats are full of healthy ingredients, dogs go crazy for them! Chola also tried to steal one while doing food photography!

Ingredients:

Ground Flaxseed: Good for skin and coat health, immune system support, and healthy digestion. If you have whole flaxseeds, you can grind them in a blender or coffee grinder.

Unsweetened Applesauce: A good source of vitamins A, C, K, calcium and phosphorus. Antioxidants can help prevent cancer, help with symptoms of joint disease, and improve dental health and breath. Make sure you use unsweetened applesauce. Alternatively, you can replace the applesauce with unsweetened pumpkin puree or cooked mashed sweet potatoes (with no added oil or seasonings).

Natural Peanut Butter: A small amount of peanut butter is added for flavor to make these foods more palatable, but peanut butter contains protein, healthy fats, vitamins B, E, and niacin. Make sure the peanut butter you use is natural peanut butter. The only ingredient should be peanuts. Avoid processed peanut butter that contains added oil, sugar and salt. That stuff is basically frosting and bad for our pups.

Dried Parsley: A good source of vitamins and minerals and also has antimicrobial properties that help freshen breath!

Cinnamon: In small amounts, cinnamon is safe and healthy for dogs. It can help improve brain function, focus and memory and also has anti-inflammatory properties. Omit it if preferred.

Wheat flour: Packed with fiber, and protein, and a good source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, including vitamin B9 (folate), vitamin E, copper, iron, manganese and selenium. You can alternatively replace it with oat flour or another dog-safe flour.

How to make this healthy dog ​​treat recipe:

Preheat your oven to 350F (180C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or leave to dry (the treats shouldn’t stick).
Mix warm water and hemp in a small bowl or measuring cup. Set aside for about 10 minutes to thicken.

Add the thick flax mixture, applesauce, peanut butter, parsley and cinnamon to a large bowl and mix well. Add the whole wheat flour and mix to make a stiff dry dough (it won’t come together yet).

Dump the dough and remaining flour and bits from the bowl onto a clean work surface. Gather the flour and knead to combine all the dough. If your dough doesn’t come together and is too dry, sprinkle in water 1 teaspoon at a time until the dough comes together into a stiff dough.

Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to about ½ inch (1.3 cm) thick. Cut dough into dog biscuits. I used this bone-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the treats, but you can use any cookie cutter, or just cut them into squares with a knife or pizza cutter. Collect any dough scraps and re-roll to make more treats.

Place the treats in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes – 60 minutes until the treats are golden on the bottom and dry.

Allow your puppy to cool before giving one. I like to cool my treats on a baking sheet and let them sit out in the open overnight to dry out even more and become more crunchy. Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or you can freeze them. I hope your dog loves this healthy dog ​​treat recipe!
