Vegan Pumpkin & Flaxseed Biscuits – The Perfect Crunchy Snack for Your Dog!
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats – Oats are gentle on digestion and packed with fiber, making them a great base for dog treats.
- 1 /2 cup pumpkin puree – Pumpkin is full of fiber and beta-carotene, keeping digestion smooth and the immune system strong.
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed – Flaxseed brings omega-3 fatty acids to the table, helping to keep your pup’s skin and coat shiny.
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional) – This adds a touch of healthy fat to keep the biscuits soft on the inside and great for skin and coat health.
Instructions
- Preheat the OvenStart by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or lightly oil it if that’s easier).
- Mix Dry IngredientsIn a large bowl, combine the oats and ground flaxseed, stirring them together to evenly mix.
- Add the Pumpkin and Coconut OilPour in the pumpkin puree and coconut oil (if you’re using it). Stir until you have a thick dough that holds together. If it’s too dry, add a little water, a teaspoon at a time.
- Shape the BiscuitsScoop a spoonful of dough, roll it into a ball, and then flatten it to make a biscuit shape. Place each biscuit on the baking sheet, leaving a bit of space.
- BakeBake for 20-25 minutes or until the biscuits are golden and crisp around the edges. For a crunchier biscuit, let them sit in the oven with the heat off for a few extra minutes to dry out.
- Cool & ServeAllow the biscuits to cool completely before treating your dog. Chances are, they’ll be ready to pounce by this point!
