Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup grated apple (peeled and cored)
  • 1 cup grated carrot
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (or oat flour for gluten-free)
  • 1/4 cup water (or as needed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the chew sticks evenly.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the grated apple, grated carrot, and whole wheat or oat flour thoroughly to blend the flavors and textures.
  3. Add Water: Gradually add water while stirring until the mixture forms a firm dough that holds together without being too sticky.
  4. Shape Dough: Roll the dough into small sticks or your preferred shapes suitable for your dog’s size and chewing preference.
  5. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and easy cleanup, then place the shaped dough sticks evenly spaced on it.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the sticks become firm and dry, ensuring they are cooked through and achieve the ideal chewy texture.
  7. Cool Completely: Allow the chew sticks to cool fully on a wire rack before giving them to your dog to prevent burns and maintain their firmness.

Notes

  • Use oat flour instead of whole wheat flour to make the treats gluten-free.
  • Adjust water quantity slightly if dough feels too dry or sticky to get the right consistency.
  • Store the treats in an airtight container to maintain freshness and texture.
  • Always supervise your dog when giving new treats to ensure they chew safely.
  • Consult your vet if your dog has any allergies before introducing new treat ingredients.
