These treats come together quickly and are baked to a perfect, easy-to-serve consistency.
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Combine the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, blueberries, coconut flour, and egg. Stir until everything is fully incorporated. If the mixture feels too wet, add a bit more coconut flour.
Step 3: Form into Small Treats
Take small portions of the mixture and form them into bite-sized balls or patties. Place each treat on the baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between them.
Step 4: Bake
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the treats are firm and lightly browned. For a little extra crunch, bake for an additional 5 minutes.
Step 5: Cool and Serve
Let the treats cool completely before serving. Your dog might be drooling by now, but make sure they’re cool enough to enjoy safely!

FAQs
Q: Can I use dried blueberries instead of fresh?

Yes, just make sure to give smaller portions to avoid overfeeding.
