Instead of getting caught up in romance and fancy dinners this Valentine’s, have a blast cooking VEGAN DOG TREATS! You heard me! Your little critter needs love, and even if you don’t have a critter of your very own, what better way to spread the love is there than to donate a plate of yummy dog biscuits to your local animal shelter? You can spend your Valentines Day doing something that will make a difference.
Vegan Dog Treats:
5 cups flour
3 cups rolled oats
2-1/4 cups water
5 large carrots, finely shredded
2/3 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup applesauce
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a bowl, combine flour and oats. Mix in water, carrots, peanut butter, and applesauce.
3. Knead dough until people-cookie dough consistency. Roll out dough to desired thickness on a floured surface. Use cookie cutters to create biscuit shapes.
4. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until slightly firm. Let biscuits cool… and let pups enjoy!
Makes: 6 panfuls of biscuits, Cooking time: 20 to 25 minutes a pan
You can cut them out with any cookie cutter, but I personally love hearts, bones, or dog shapes for these treats. There are many cookie cutter sites that sell these types of cutters, you could even find your dogs shape, or just one you think is cute. (I prefer the classic Westie) Here is just one of the sites of many that sell them.
