Dog biscuits, take 2. After my first successful experiment, and because I was visiting Toffi, a friends’ dog (and his masters), I thought of trying a new recipe. So for this fall-winter collection of dog treats, please welcome on the catdogwalk the oh-so-fashionable oatmeal bunnies, a.k.a. the “it” doggy biscuits.
Totally a must-have, dahling. Forget leopard-print.
Toffi, who likes to sport an effortlessly dishevelled, boho chic style, loves their almost naturalistic rabbit shape and light bacon flavour.
Mix 1 cup oatmeal and 1 cup flour (wheat, rye), a tbsp of sugar, a tbsp or two of bacon fat (ie what’s left in the pan after you’re done with your own breakfast), and slowly add about 1/2 cup of milk, lightly kneading the dough until it coalesces. Don’t overwork. Wrap the ball of dough in clingfilm, and place it in the fridge for about 30 minutes to let it firm up. Roll it out to 1/4 inch thickness, cut into rabbit shape (or elephants), and bake for 15 minutes at 350°F. Wait before they’ve cooled down before you pander to your best friend.
Anyone else here addicted to the adobe desat/history brush tool combo? I need help.
Ok, and now, back to human food, perhaps?
OMG, I totally have to try this, particularly making them elephant-shaped. Elephants are very popular in this house, if they made pygmy versions we’d probably have one.
And what’s next on the human menu? =)
I’ll save all your dog treats for the one that we are planning on…my husband wants a big dog and I want a little one…so…
The size of the dog is always a bone of contention - if I dare say so - between she-masters and he-masters. The solution we hit upon: a middle-sized dog, viz Toffi himself (pictured above). I can confirm that Toffi loves the dog-treats herein ‘reciped.’
These are nice… I hope my parents are welcoming a new dog asap so I can bake these!!! Little Minos & Yocki left us a year ago now
Les filles (Jodie et Emmi) en veulent aussi! tu peux les préparer pour samedi!! Only bunny-shaped as they ARE (even virtually) gun dogs!
Is there a law forbidding humans from eating those treats?
What about if i sit on the floor next to J-dog and eat my elephant dog treat. Would that make it okay?
And can i special order a lama-shaped doggie treat?
I know. I have lots of questions today. Feel free to tell me to shut up.
I promise i will after i get my treat.
Thank you so much for posting this. I have a lot of clients that are looking for healthy home treats that they can make that are more organic. Actually I am going to make some myself!!
