Apple Carrot Dog Treats

Apple Carrot Dog Treats Serves: 280 tiny bites, (mine were ¾ inch x ¾ inch) 2 & 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (unbleached white flour is okay too) 1/2 cup oats 1 Tablespoon brown sugar 1/2 cup apple, peeled and grated (about 1 small apple) 1/2 cup carrots, peeled and grated 1 egg, beaten 1/3 cup vegetable oil 1/4 cup water Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In one bowl, mix the flour, oats, and brown sugar. In separate bowl, beat the egg and mix in the oil, water. Peel and grate apple and carrots and mix into the egg/water mixture. Gradually add wet mixture into flour mixture and stir until a dough has formed. You can add up to ¼ cup additional water but I didn't find it necessary as the apple added a lot of moisture. Carefully roll out dough and cut out desired shape with a cookie cutter, glass rim, or anything else of desired shape. (I used a small cap!) Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes, until the treats are firm. Smaller shapes like mine require slightly less cooking time than larger treats. Remove them from the oven and let them cook completely prior to sharing with your furry friend : ) Store the treats in an airtight container for up to a week. You can also freeze them- when you need more, let them thaw at room temperature prior to serving.
